The California Special Election is on Nov. 4. Here's everything you need to know about Prop 50 and where to vote if you haven't mailed your ballot already.
Many of the state's Congressional districts will be redrawn if Proposition 50 passes. Latino voters will likely have a big say in whether or not the proposition is approved.
A poll conducted by the UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies in August found that 51% of Latinos approved of Newsom’s performance, while 48% said they would vote yes on Prop 50 and 20% were still undecided.
Although just over half of Latinos in the state approve of Newsom, that doesn’t mean the voting bloc is a guarantee. Latinos aren’t a monolith, and often don’t vote the way the parties think they will, as was seen after the last presidential election when more California Latinos voted for the Republican candidate than was expected.
