Welcome to the California Legislative History blog

The purpose of the One Voter Project websites is to educate the public (and those who are involved in state politics or policy-making) about the political landscape around them, and to assure them that there is a long history that has led to the occasionally turbulent world of California politics. Looking to the past gives us a reference point from which to view current events and reminds us that there is a precedent for almost everything.
