California Governor Gavin Newsom announced this week what he is calling "The Election Rigging Response Act."
The goal is to add a ballot measure in November that would allow the state government to redraw its Congressional map. This comes as a response to redistricting moves in Texas.
"This is what democracy looks like. It is how to use the power of democracy to fight against autocracy, which is basically what the struggle is shaping up to be," said Tom Fulks, San Luis Obispo County Democratic Party Chair.
Fulks says he supports Governor Newsom's proposal but SLO County’s Republican Chair says that if this passes, his party will be severely underrepresented in the House.
"Look at us here in our county. We have Jimmy Panetta up, up on the north, and we have Salud Carbajal to the south,"
