In what should surprise no one but will hopefully educate some obstructionist legislators, a poll commissioned by California Common Cause found that California voters prefer that an independent commission conduct redistricting rather than the Legislature.
Even voters who defeated the misconceived Proposition 77 support an independent commission by twenty percentage points.
Check out this powerpoint presentation of the poll results.
Meanwhile, SCA 3, a California Common Cause supported bill that would create such an independent commission is working its way through the legislature.
