Redistricting.

(1) The California Constitution requires the Citizens Redistricting Commission to draw district lines for the election of Members of the State Senate, Assembly, Congress, and the State Board of Equalization. The commission is required to approve final maps and certify them to the Secretary of State by August 15 in each year ending in the number one. Existing law requires the Secretary of State to provide each Member of the Senate, Assembly, and the State Board of Equalization, and each Member of Congress from California, with one copy of a map of the Member's district. This bill would instead require the Secretary of State, upon receipt of certified final maps from the Citizens Redistricting Commission, to provide electronic copies of the maps to county elections officials, the Chief Clerk of the Assembly, the Senate Committee on Rules, the California congressional delegation, and the State Board of Equalization. (2) Existing law requires the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to furnish to the Legislature and the Citizens Redistricting Commission certain information regarding each inmate incarcerated in a state correctional facility on the decennial Census Day, including the residential address at which the inmate was domiciled before the inmate's current term of incarceration. Under the existing law, the Legislature requests the Citizens Redistricting Commission to deem each incarcerated person as residing at that person's last known place of residence rather than at the institution of that person's incarceration. This bill would instead require the commission to deem each incarcerated person as residing at that person's last known place of residence, except as provided.
