Abrams joins 29 other DAs in opposition to Prop. 50https://www.dailyrepublic.com/news/abrams-joins-29-other-das-in-opposition-to-prop-50/article_8d83d290-80a4-4c6b-b552-2ed66f44cc21.htmlFAIRFIELD — Solano County District Attorney Krishna Abrams is one of 30 DAs who signed a letter opposing Proposition 50.
The DAs call the proposal “a fight-fire-with-fire” approach that would “dismantle the voter-approved California Citizens Redistricting Commission.”
Abrams could not be reached for comment Friday.
"As elected district attorneys, we are committed to upholding public trust through transparency, fairness and the rule of law. We strongly oppose Proposition 50, which seeks to dismantle the voter-approved California Citizens Redistricting Commission and reinstate partisan gerrymandering – a flawed process rejected by Californians through Proposition 11 (2008) and Proposition 20 (2010).
"Proposition 50 undermines democracy by prioritizing politicians’ power instead of preserving voter-approved reforms that improve community representation. The independent commission has fairly redrawn electoral districts after the last two censuses," the letter states.
Solano County is in the SF Bay Area, but since Travis AFB is in the county it is less uber-Prog than other Bay Area counties. Here is the list of 30 DAs from

I'm mildly surprised that the Yolo County DA is among them, as UC Davis plays a significant role in that county's politics. Outside of Davis, though, the county has a lot of business people and farmers, people who have to deal with onerous gooberment regs. Solano County, a Bay Area county, is a bit of a surprise, but it has Travis AFB people. LA County's DA is a surprise to me, but it also has a lot of people in more rural parts.
