ARTICLES RELATED TO California government and politics - Constitution |  |  |  | California government and politics - Constitution: Encyclopedia II - California government and politics - ConstitutionCalifornia's constitution is one of the longest laws in the world, taking up over 10,000 sheets of paper. Part of this length is caused by the fact that most voter initiatives take the form of a constitutional amendment, as the state Legislature can easily overturn any law with the governor's consent, while a constitutional amendment requires an election to be ratified.
Many of the individual rights clauses in the state constitution have been construed as providing rights even ...

 |  |  | California government and politics - Constitution: Encyclopedia II - California government and politics - Bi-partisan gerrymanderingAfter the 2000 year census, the legislature was obliged to set new district boundaries, both for the state Assembly and Senate and for Federal Congressional Districts. This would normally be expected to create a divisive political fight between the Republicans and the Democrats.

 |  |  | California government and politics - Constitution: Encyclopedia II - California government and politics - Electoral SystemDue to the first-past-the-post electoral system used in California, only the Democratic Party and Republican Party currently have representation in the State Legislature. However, for a brief period in the 1990s, the Green Party elected a member of the State Assembly from the eastern San Francisco Bay Area.
California does not currently use a form of proportional representation in its elections, but some municipalities such as San Francisco and Berkeley have opted to use a system of preferential voting, currently used in Australia and Ireland, more popularly known ...

 |  |  | California government and politics - Constitution: Encyclopedia II - California government and politics - Political IssuesThere have been several constitutional crises over the last twenty years: The passage of term limits for the California legislature and elected constitutional officers (which was hotly argued state-wide, and debated in the Supreme Court of California); a test of the ratification process for the Supreme Court (in which a liberal chief justice, Rose Bird, was ousted); a full-fledged tax revolt, "Proposition 13," which resulted in the freezing of real estate tax rates at 1% of the property's last sale price; and a test of the state recall provision (in which Governor Gray Davis was recalled in a 2003 special e ...
