California will hold a statewide special election on Tuesday, November 4. Voters will decide Proposition 50, a legislatively-referred constitutional amendment that would authorize a one-time, mid-decade congressional map for 2026–2030, temporarily replacing the map drawn by the independent citizens’ commission.
Look for an announcement on CAIR-CA’s position soon.
