Los Angeles Voters to Decide on Major Political Reforms in November Election

Proposed measures aim to reshape city and county governance, including independent redistricting and expanded oversight.

Three reform measures in Los Angeles include creating a redistricting commission, new financial disclosure rules, and expanding the county Board of Supervisors.
The proposed independent redistricting commission seeks to remove political influence from the map-drawing process for both the City Council and the LAUSD.
Charter Amendment DD aims to transfer redistricting authority from the City Council to an independent citizen panel, reducing potential conflicts of interest.
Charter Amendment LL targets the LAUSD, proposing an independent commission to ensure fair district boundaries for the nation's second-largest school district.
Despite the potential for significant change, voter interest appears subdued, with attention largely focused on national election campaigns.
