Greetings!
“We’re here, because Donald Trump on January 6 tried to light democracy on fire, tried to wreck this county, tried to steal an election,” Governor Newsom said last Thursday. “And here we are, in open and plain sight, before one vote is cast in the 2026 midterm elections, and here he is, once again, trying to rig the system.”
Newsom added: “He doesn’t play by a different set of rules. He doesn’t believe in the rules. And as a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It’s not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil and talk about the way the world should be. We have got to recognize the cards that have been dealt."
WE MUST ACT NOW !
Let’s be clear: Donald Trump and Republican-controlled states are laying the groundwork to steal the 2026 midterms—because Trump knows it’s the only way he can win.
This is a coordinated power grab. Their plan? Undermine fair elections, redraw maps in the dark, and silence millions of voices.
California must fight back.
The West LA Dems proudly support Governor Newsom’s Election Rigging Response Act - a proactive plan to defend democracy and protect fair representation. This initiative gives California voters the power to respond to partisan gerrymandering across the country when red states rig their maps.
✅ It preserves California’s Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission
✅ It strengthens transparency and voter oversight
✅ It defends our democracy from targeted attacks that hurt working families

1️⃣ This is an emergency. California voters deserve tools to protect our democracy and economy.
2️⃣ Trump’s attacks have real consequences—from wildfire relief to health care to immigrant communities.
3️⃣ Republicans hide their maps—California shows them. That’s democracy.
4️⃣ This plan only activates when red states break the rules. Otherwise, our nonpartisan commission stays in place.
We need bold, immediate action to stop election manipulation before it takes root.
Join us in standing up for fairness, transparency, and the power of the people.
