Frédérick DOUZET et Karin MAC DONALD - Minority Representation within California’s Political System

Pouvoirs n°133 - La Californie - avril 2010 - p.69-84

California is at the forefront of demographic changes that are likely to affect other parts of the United States and bear important political consequences. The demographic and political landscape of the state has dramatically changed over the past few decades, with the growth in the number of Asian and Latino elected officials and the decline in Black political representation. However, California’s statewide electorate does not reflect the diversity of California’s population. In that context, the new census and redistricting bears serious potential consequences and should stir much debate. Résumé
