California Suing Fresno County Over Recent Ballot Measure A - Elections for DA, Sheriff

Rob Bonta and Secretary of State Dr. Shirley N. Weber over Measure A.

The ballot measure, which was approved by nearly 55 percent voters during the March 5th election, meant elections for District Attorney and Sheriff will take place during the gubernatorial election cycle instead of moving them to the presidential election cycle

A 2022 California law required charter counties, that did not specify when said elections would be held prior to January 2021, to move them to the presidential cycle. Presidential elections typically have the highest voter turnout.

The lawsuit was announced in a news release from Fresno City Attorney Andrew Janz.
