Referendum proposed to overturn redistricting plan

A group of Republican leaders said Monday that the new redistricting plan will be challenged by a referendum drive.

“A referendum will be filed with respect to the Senate lines and possibly the congressional lines,” said California Republican Party Chairman Tom Del Beccaro. “The California Republican Party will wholeheartedly support those efforts when they come about.”

He said the redistricting commission’s actions “have been unfair if not unconstitutional.” L.A. TIMES
