California's top elections official says she's not concerned by federal monitors
During the final days of voting on California’s high-stakes redistricting ballot measure, Secretary of State Shirley Weber is seeking to dispel panic and reassure voters that the election will continue to run smoothly.
“Given the environment that you see on TV,” Weber said in an interview with The Sacramento Bee on Friday, “we have folks who are probably more concerned now than they’ve been in the past. So we have to reassure them of all the rights that they have.”
Her office is making sure county officials and law enforcement are up to speed on what is and isn’t allowed at polling locations and how to deal with disruptions.
Voting ends Tuesday on Proposition 50, which asks voters to approve a new congressional map benefitting Democrats as part of a redistricting war with Texas and other Republican-led states.
