SKIP THE LINE, GO ONLINE
The Statewide Database will soon launch Draw My CA Districts (online redistricting tool) and Draw My CA Plugin for QGIS (desktop GIS software) where the public will also have the opportunity to submit maps to the CRC in lieu of a public presentation.
We will make an announcement as soon as those online options are live.
You may also email the Commission directly at votersfirstact@crc.ca.gov with your map suggestions.
