Here is the announcement from the League of Women Voters of California. The first link in the LWVCA announcement takes one to the Ballotpedia page that explains the implications of Yes or No votes on this initiative.

This is one more instance of a troubling and growing trend of conflating the term “Ballot Access” with “Voters’ Rights.” I (and, I do believe, Richard Winger) think that the term ballot access should continue to address candidates’ ability to be on ballots, and that the term “Voters’ (or Voting) Rights” refers to the ability of the electorate to cast a vote.

We think the cause of a robust and effective democracy would be served by adhering to that demarcation.

Richard Winger posted on April 27 about the Scott v. McDougle case before the Supreme Court of Virginia. Here is a new article on the ramifications of the wait on the Court’s impending decision on the legality of the recent redistricting initiative that was passed by Virginia voters on Tuesday, April 21.

Here’s the story from the Washington Post.
