A group of abut a dozen people wave their signs advocating for YES of Proposition 50 Monday on the Rio Del Mar over-crossing to Highway 1. The statewide election is Today. If passed, Prop. 50—also known as the Election Rigging Response Act—would allow state officials to redraw the state’s congressional district maps. Supporters say the law—which would last until the 2030 census—is in response to Republican efforts to redraw congressional boundaries in other states such as Texas in an effort to shift elections in their favor. Opponents counter that it would remove voter protections that prohibit maps designed to favor one political party.
