What it does
Existing law authorizes the governing body of a city or city and county to propose an amendment to the charter of the city or city and county, and to submit the proposal to the voters at the next established statewide general election, provided there are at least 88 days before the election. The California Voting Rights Act of 2001 (CVRA) prohibits the use of an at-large election in a political subdivision, as defined, if it would impair the ability of a protected class to elect candidates of its choice or otherwise influence the outcome of an election.
