Civil rights group have filed a lawsuit alleging that Riverside County’s new voting districts disenfranchise Latino voters.
About half of Riverside County’s 2.4 million residents identify as Latino, but Latinos are only reflected in one member on the county’s board of supervisors, the lawsuit says.Cheech Marin started collecting marbles and baseball cards as a kid. Now, he has the Cheech to exhibit his collection of Chicano art in Riverside.
The county maintains that its new district map is compliant with federal and state laws and includes two districts that are “Latino opportunity-to-elect districts,” said spokeswoman Brooke Federico. She declined to specify which two districts had Latino majorities.
