Coachella Valley Water District to Study Election System
From The Desert Sun:
“Responding to a complaint by a group of Latino voters, the Coachella Valley Water District board will study whether to change its election system.
“The water district’s board took up the issue Tuesday after civil rights lawyers representing several voters notified the agency in a letter that they believe the at-large election system violates the California Voting Rights Act of 2001 and ‘dilutes the ability of Latino constituents to elect candidates of their choice.’”
