Reagan signals veto of California reapportionment plan
Governor Ronald Reagan indicated he would veto the legislature's redistricting measure AB164, saying it destroys communities of interest. Meade's plan would realign the Assembly to 47 Democrats and 33 Republicans while preserving current Senate balance and is slated for floor votes after a conference committee reel. The governor could sign the Senate plan if considered separately, but the two-house measure faces veto override hurdles in both chambers.
