SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Wednesday endorsed an Ohio ballot measure that is similar to a redistricting proposal on California's Nov. 8 special election ballot.
Like Proposition 77, the Ohio proposal would take redistricting powers away from state legislators and turn them over to a commission. It's also on the ballot Nov. 8.
Schwarzenegger, a Republican, is battling the perception that his support for Proposition 77 is an attempt to elect more Republicans to the state Legislature and California's congressional delegation. The Ohio proposal is backed by Democrats.
