Press Release: Shasta County Board of Supervisors Approves Adding Election Reform Initiative to the June Ballot

November 6, 2025

Today the Shasta County Board of Supervisors performed their ministerial duty to add our election reform initiative to the ballot.   


Unlike the highly unpopular city tax measure that got placed on the ballot immediately for a special election, our initiative will be voted on by the people during the regularly scheduled June 2, 2026 primary election.   


Citizens followed state law and the California Constitution in collecting over 10,000 signatures in overwhelming support of this measure and it was certified before the board today as sufficient.   


The board missed an opportunity to either enact the measure immediately or hold a special election (according to Ca Election Code 9118, and 1405b). Nevertheless, the proponents of this measure are satisfied that the people will eventually have their say and the measure will pass in June.
