This slide deck is designed to provide basic information about congressional districts, the selection process and purpose. The powerpoint also includes nonpartisan information regarding Proposition 50, including what it is and the ins and outs of the Proposition. The content was developed by the League of Women Voters of Stanislaus County and is based on the information provided in the Easy Voter Guide. The League hopes that this information will be useful to voters for the November 4th election.

Unite and Rise 8.5: Empowering Voters for Change

The League of Women Voters (LWV) is a nonpartisan organization dedicated to empowering voters and defending democracy. One of its key initiatives, Unite and Rise 8.5, is a powerful program aimed at strengthening civic engagement, increasing voter participation, and ensuring that all voices are heard in the democratic process.

League of Women Voters of the United States CEO Celina Stewart, Esq., issued the following statement in response to states considering mid-cycle redistricting:

"The League of Women Voters does not support a tit-for-tat approach to redistricting. State legislatures redrawing their maps mid-cycle reflects political gamesmanship that erodes public trust in our democracy. Redistricting must be fair, transparent, and rooted in the voices of voters — not partisan retaliation.
