California voters gave themselves the power to redraw legislative lines in the state when they passed Proposition 11 in 2008. Citizens can apply, through February 12, to serve on a commission whose job it will be to redistrict California. But there’s growing concern that the commission isn’t attracting ethnically diverse applicants.

Guests:

Elaine M. Howle, California State auditor responsible for outreach for the California Citizens Redistricting Commission

John Myers, KQED's Sacramento bureau chief

Nancy Ramirez, Western regional counsel for the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund

Mark Masaoka, policy coordinator with the Asian Pacific Policy and Planning Council

Karin MacDonald, director of the statewide redistricting database at UC Berkeley
