"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

However, \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/nov05election/detail?entry_id=78289\" target=\"_blank\">he admitted\u003c/a> to the San Francisco Chronicle's Joe Garofoli it was unlikely the result would change.

As befitting a San Ramon resident from the middle of youth soccer nirvana, a youth soccer analogy:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\" 'During my soccer coaching career,' Harmer said, 'it was a worthy tradition when the game was over to shake hands not just with the opposing players, but their coaches and the rest and saying, \"Good game.\" I'll do that, I'm sure,' he said.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And, Garofoli reported Saturday, that sporting \"handshake\" happened more quickly than Harmer let on it would. Harmer told the Chron's reporter, \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/nov05election/detail?entry_id=78374\" target=\"_blank\">via text from a movie theater\u003c/a>, that he had called McNerney on Friday to concede.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his concession announcement, Harmer explained why he waited until now to publicly acknowledge his defeat: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\n\"Having invested nearly two years of full-time and uncompensated effort in this endeavor, I was ready for a verdict on November 2. I knew that the race would be close, but I intended and expected to win. I was prepared and eager to serve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"On the other hand, had we clearly lost, my disappointment would have been tempered by relief at returning to the normal routines of private life. What I hadn't anticipated was neither of the above -- a month of uncertainty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you've given your all without attaining success, is any temptation more seductive than to quit?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I can report firsthand that the Harmer family had already had enough. But we recognized that the campaign wasn't ours alone; it belonged to everyone who had invested time, money, reputation, or heart in it. I was a spokesman for tens of thousands of volunteers, donors, and voters, the advocate of their views and values, and the trustee of their political hopes. They merited my best efforts to ensure that their voices were heard and their votes counted.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Harmer said in last week's interviews that among his first priorities, now that he's not going to the House, is to find a job and get his family's finances in order. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

However, \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/nov05election/detail?entry_id=78289\" target=\"_blank\">he admitted\u003c/a> to the San Francisco Chronicle's Joe Garofoli it was unlikely the result would change. Yes, he told Garofoli, he thought a concession would be coming:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"... As befitting a San Ramon resident from the middle of youth soccer nirvana, a youth soccer analogy:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\" 'During my soccer coaching career,' Harmer said, 'it was a worthy tradition when the game was over to shake hands not just with the opposing players, but their coaches and the rest and saying, \"Good game.\" I'll do that, I'm sure,' he said.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And, Garofoli reported Saturday, that sporting \"handshake\" happened more quickly than Harmer let on it would. Harmer told the Chron's reporter, \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/nov05election/detail?entry_id=78374\" target=\"_blank\">via text from a movie theater\u003c/a>, that he had called McNerney on Friday to concede.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his concession announcement, Harmer explained why he waited until now to publicly acknowledge his defeat: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\n\"Having invested nearly two years of full-time and uncompensated effort in this endeavor, I was ready for a verdict on November 2. I knew that the race would be close, but I intended and expected to win. I was prepared and eager to serve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"On the other hand, had we clearly lost, my disappointment would have been tempered by relief at returning to the normal routines of private life. What I hadn't anticipated was neither of the above -- a month of uncertainty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you've given your all without attaining success, is any temptation more seductive than to quit?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I can report firsthand that the Harmer family had already had enough. But we recognized that the campaign wasn't ours alone; it belonged to everyone who had invested time, money, reputation, or heart in it. I was a spokesman for tens of thousands of volunteers, donors, and voters, the advocate of their views and values, and the trustee of their political hopes. They merited my best efforts to ensure that their voices were heard and their votes counted.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Harmer said in last week's interviews that among his first priorities, now that he's not going to the House, is to find a job and get his family's finances in order. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

While it happens on the local level in some California communities for things like transit and community college districts, the focus has been on statewide redistricting — districts for the state Legislature, state Board of Equalization, and the U.S. House of Representatives that are drawn every 10 years once new Census data is finalized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The practice of “\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerrymandering\">gerrymandering\u003c/a>,” which generically means drawing maps to benefit someone other than the public, is as old as the country itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s own history with redistricting has been, in a word, complicated. Like many states, our maps have been drawn by the Legislature and approved by the governor. But three of the last four redistricting efforts were so controversial that they landed either in the courts (1970s, 1990s) or on the ballot (1980s). The most recent maps, drawn by the Legislature and approved by then Gov. Gray Davis in 2001, were the impetus for reformers to strip the power of redistricting completely from legislators — first in 2008 (\u003ca href=\"http://www.ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/California_Proposition_11_%282008%29\">Proposition 11\u003c/a>) and then, additionally, on November 2 (\u003ca href=\"http://www.ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/California_Proposition_20,_Congressional_Redistricting_%282010%29\">Proposition 20\u003c/a>).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>QUESTION\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nWhat did Proposition 20 do? What criteria are the new redistricting commission required to consider and what criteria are they explicitly prohibited from considering? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>JOHN MYERS\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nProp 20 gives the power of drawing California’s congressional districts to the new \u003ca href=\"http://wedrawthelines.ca.gov/\">Citizens Redistricting Commission\u003c/a> — a panel that’s just now convening and was created by 2008’s Prop 11 to draw legislative and state Board of Equalization districts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for criteria, the commission will have to follow legal requirements about equal population and protection of minority voting rights. (The latter is especially important in some parts of California with historical cases of voting rights discrimination). After that, political districts will need to be — to the extent possible — geographically contiguous and compact, thus avoiding the oft-criticized “squiggly” districts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prop 20 enhanced one of the commission’s marching orders: drawing political districts with an eye towards what are called “communities of interest.” This will be an especially interesting part of the process, as the term is defined differently in states across the country and, in the minds of some experts, is more art than science. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The only real criteria that the new citizens commission can NOT take into consideration are the residences of politicians (including incumbents) and the relative proportions of political parties. It’s worth noting that some defenders of the status quo may consider a lawsuit challenging the commission on the former — arguing that if two incumbents are lumped into a single political district, some voters will be denied their rights to vote for the person they desire. But of course, redistricting almost always produces lawsuits of some sort.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>QUESTION\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nWho is on the commission? How were they chosen? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>JOHN MYERS\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nThe commission will be made up of 14 men and women — 5 Democrats, 5 Republicans, 4 citizens from other parties/independents. Last week, the first \u003ca href=\"http://sfcitizen.com/blog/2010/11/19/meet-your-new-california-citizens-redistricting-commission-includes-cynthia-dai-of-sf-all-members-went-to-uc/\">8 commissioners\u003c/a> were picked at random by the California State Auditor from the final applicant pool (the vetting process has been going on all year); soon, those 8 commissioners will choose 6 more from the applicant pool… then it’s on to picking staff, etc. and then the map drawing will begin. I should note the timeline for drawing maps will be pretty tight; the final census data won’t arrive until April 1 and yet all the maps — 174 districts in all — must be drawn by August 15. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>QUESTION\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nHow might this new procedure impact California’s House delegation? Who do you think is most endangered? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>JOHN MYERS\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nIt all depends on how you look at things. The chances of dramatic changes in party representation are almost non-existent. Democrats are California’s dominant party, and no redistricting map will lead to Republicans winning the balance of the state’s congressional seats. But what might change — and thus, the angst from politicians — is who those members of Congress are. For example, there’s long been a feeling that — were it not for the 2001 effort to protect incumbents — some Los Angeles area Democratic incumbents would have been challenged, and lost, due to the rapid growth in the Latino community. The gerrymandered LA districts seemed to specifically deny the existence of at least one so-called “minority majority” congressional district in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some are also theorizing that Republicans may suffer more than Democrats, given how many more Democratic voters there are than Republican voters these days in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>QUESTION\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nWhat other public offices will be affected by the change? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>JOHN MYERS\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nAll 120 legislative districts (80 in the Assembly, 40 in the state Senate) will be redrawn, as will the four statewide Board of Equalization districts. It’s worth noting that my reporting over the years has found that what you will NOT see from this process is a significant number of new competitive districts between Democrats and Republicans. The reality is that Californians have self-segregated themselves so much that, say, you can’t draw competitive districts in most of the Bay Area. But the key, say reformers, is that the new commission will be 100% transparent… so that at least everyone knows deals weren’t cut behind closed doors. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>QUESTION\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nAre any other states looking at California as a model for changing their own methods of drawing districts? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>JOHN MYERS\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nAs the process begins, California becomes one of only a handful of states with truly independent redistricting commissions. But even so, ours is unique; no other commission is picked the way ours is, and few others have been given as detailed marching orders as ours. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2011, much of the nation will be focused on whether shady backroom deals are being cut when it comes to redistricting; in California, we’ll be watching to see what happens when you take largely inexperienced citizens, require them to discuss and debate their choices in public hearings, and then ask them to produce political maps that can pass the muster of both the law and public opinion. \u003c/p>\n\n",

While it happens on the local level in some California communities for things like transit and community college districts, the focus has been on statewide redistricting — districts for the state Legislature, state Board of Equalization, and the U.S. House of Representatives that are drawn every 10 years once new Census data is finalized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The practice of “\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerrymandering\">gerrymandering\u003c/a>,” which generically means drawing maps to benefit someone other than the public, is as old as the country itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s own history with redistricting has been, in a word, complicated. Like many states, our maps have been drawn by the Legislature and approved by the governor. But three of the last four redistricting efforts were so controversial that they landed either in the courts (1970s, 1990s) or on the ballot (1980s). The most recent maps, drawn by the Legislature and approved by then Gov. Gray Davis in 2001, were the impetus for reformers to strip the power of redistricting completely from legislators — first in 2008 (\u003ca href=\"http://www.ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/California_Proposition_11_%282008%29\">Proposition 11\u003c/a>) and then, additionally, on November 2 (\u003ca href=\"http://www.ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/California_Proposition_20,_Congressional_Redistricting_%282010%29\">Proposition 20\u003c/a>).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>QUESTION\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nWhat did Proposition 20 do? What criteria are the new redistricting commission required to consider and what criteria are they explicitly prohibited from considering? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>JOHN MYERS\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nProp 20 gives the power of drawing California’s congressional districts to the new \u003ca href=\"http://wedrawthelines.ca.gov/\">Citizens Redistricting Commission\u003c/a> — a panel that’s just now convening and was created by 2008’s Prop 11 to draw legislative and state Board of Equalization districts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for criteria, the commission will have to follow legal requirements about equal population and protection of minority voting rights. (The latter is especially important in some parts of California with historical cases of voting rights discrimination). After that, political districts will need to be — to the extent possible — geographically contiguous and compact, thus avoiding the oft-criticized “squiggly” districts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prop 20 enhanced one of the commission’s marching orders: drawing political districts with an eye towards what are called “communities of interest.” This will be an especially interesting part of the process, as the term is defined differently in states across the country and, in the minds of some experts, is more art than science. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The only real criteria that the new citizens commission can NOT take into consideration are the residences of politicians (including incumbents) and the relative proportions of political parties. It’s worth noting that some defenders of the status quo may consider a lawsuit challenging the commission on the former — arguing that if two incumbents are lumped into a single political district, some voters will be denied their rights to vote for the person they desire. But of course, redistricting almost always produces lawsuits of some sort.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>QUESTION\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nWho is on the commission? How were they chosen? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>JOHN MYERS\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nThe commission will be made up of 14 men and women — 5 Democrats, 5 Republicans, 4 citizens from other parties/independents. Last week, the first \u003ca href=\"http://sfcitizen.com/blog/2010/11/19/meet-your-new-california-citizens-redistricting-commission-includes-cynthia-dai-of-sf-all-members-went-to-uc/\">8 commissioners\u003c/a> were picked at random by the California State Auditor from the final applicant pool (the vetting process has been going on all year); soon, those 8 commissioners will choose 6 more from the applicant pool… then it’s on to picking staff, etc. and then the map drawing will begin. I should note the timeline for drawing maps will be pretty tight; the final census data won’t arrive until April 1 and yet all the maps — 174 districts in all — must be drawn by August 15. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>QUESTION\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nHow might this new procedure impact California’s House delegation? Who do you think is most endangered? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>JOHN MYERS\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nIt all depends on how you look at things. The chances of dramatic changes in party representation are almost non-existent. Democrats are California’s dominant party, and no redistricting map will lead to Republicans winning the balance of the state’s congressional seats. But what might change — and thus, the angst from politicians — is who those members of Congress are. For example, there’s long been a feeling that — were it not for the 2001 effort to protect incumbents — some Los Angeles area Democratic incumbents would have been challenged, and lost, due to the rapid growth in the Latino community. The gerrymandered LA districts seemed to specifically deny the existence of at least one so-called “minority majority” congressional district in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some are also theorizing that Republicans may suffer more than Democrats, given how many more Democratic voters there are than Republican voters these days in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>QUESTION\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nWhat other public offices will be affected by the change? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>JOHN MYERS\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nAll 120 legislative districts (80 in the Assembly, 40 in the state Senate) will be redrawn, as will the four statewide Board of Equalization districts. It’s worth noting that my reporting over the years has found that what you will NOT see from this process is a significant number of new competitive districts between Democrats and Republicans. The reality is that Californians have self-segregated themselves so much that, say, you can’t draw competitive districts in most of the Bay Area. But the key, say reformers, is that the new commission will be 100% transparent… so that at least everyone knows deals weren’t cut behind closed doors. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>QUESTION\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nAre any other states looking at California as a model for changing their own methods of drawing districts? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>JOHN MYERS\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nAs the process begins, California becomes one of only a handful of states with truly independent redistricting commissions. But even so, ours is unique; no other commission is picked the way ours is, and few others have been given as detailed marching orders as ours. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
