made that very clear through OP ED's in the Sacramento Bee from Gloria Chun Ho their president, and other areas on their website. I wouldn't be fooled by their "taking the high road" stand bullshit.

In addition, when I got the mailer this morning I went to the League of Women Voter Website which had a splash screen saying to vote no on the redistricting. How did that happen?
Either their website got hacked or someone is lying.
The League of Women Voters better do something stronger than post a memo on their website, they need to sue someone's ass if they are falsely using the League for something they did not do.
Someone spent a hell of a lot of money to send those mailers.
Also, on August 15, 2025 they responded to what the Governor is doing by saying he is wrong:
"WASHINGTON & SACRAMENTO — Today the League of Women Voters of the United States and the League of Women Voters of California issued the following statement in response to Governor Newsom’s latest interview on mid-cycle redistricting:
“Governor Newsom is ‘dead wrong’ on the League of Women Voters. We are aligned with voters. Period.
“Gerrymandering is a threat to democracy, regardless of who does it. When it comes to redistricting, the League has a decades-long record of opposing partisan gerrymandering by both major parties, including recently in Texas. We know who loses in this kind of fight: Black and brown voters.
“Our record is clear: we fight against President Trump’s anti-democratic policies in the legislature, in the courts, and in the streets.
“What voters want is for their leaders to stand up to authoritarianism, not silence their voices in an arms race for political power. Californians built a community-driven process for creating fair maps. A rushed special election, where voter turnout is notoriously low, does not empower Californians.
“The League of Women Voters will not be bullied into changing our nonpartisan identity. We know who we are and what we stand for. Join us to stand up for democracy, against whomever threatens it.”

so what is it? They are sending mixed messages, and talking out of both sides of their mouths.
