NewsThe League of Women Voters of California (LWVC) released this statement about the misleading mailer sent about the California Redistricting Ballot Initiative:
"You may have received a mailer from “Protect Voters First” about the redistricting ballot initiative this November. By naming our organization and quoting Gloria Chun Hoo, the mailer wrongly implies that the League of Women Voters of California is part of their coalition and endorses the information contained in the flyer.
This implication is not correct—we are not part of that coalition. The League of Women Voters of California did not authorize this action.
Helen Hutchison, LWVC Interim Executive Director
Gloria Chun Hoo, LWVC President
The statement by Gloria Chun Hoo was made before the final legislation was done, and was an effort to discourage tampering with the current system of independent redistricting. It is not the final opinion of LWVC on the measure that will be on the November ballot.
