Vallejo City Council voted to transition from “at-large elections” of our councilmembers to “by-district” elections on July 9, 2019.
“At-large” systems have been subject to legal challenges under the California Voting Rights Act. In Vallejo, our at-large system has been challenged as discriminatory, thus, the City Council voted to transition to “by-district” elections on July 9, 2019. Map 616 was selected after careful consideration. Districts 1, 3, and 6 will hold elections in 2020. Districts 2, 4, and 5 will hold elections in 2022.
Vallejo residents participated in the district elections process by submitting maps, attending workshops, and speaking at public hearings.
