For the inside dope on the redistricting end game, KQED's John Myers has been tweeting about the release of the latest working drafts by the California Citizens Redistricting Commission, leading up to tomorrow's final vote. Barring any changes today, these will be the final maps. And from what Myers has been tweeting, changes at this point seem unlikely.
This evening on KQED Radio 88.5, Cy Musiker will be talking to Myers about the changes. You can listen to that conversation at 5:30 p.m. right here. Or check out the archive afterward.
