SECTION 21000-21002



21000.  The county elections official in each county shall compile
and make available to the Legislature or any appropriate committee of
the Legislature any information and statistics that may be necessary
for use in connection with the reapportionment of legislative
districts, including, but not limited to, precinct maps indicating
the boundaries of municipalities, school districts, judicial
districts, Assembly districts, senatorial districts and congressional
districts, lists showing the election returns for each precinct, and
election returns for each precinct reflecting the vote total for all
ballots cast, including both vote by mail ballots and ballots cast
at polling places, compiled pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section
15321 in the county at each statewide election. If the county
elections official stores the information and statistics in
data-processing files, he or she shall make the files available,
along with whatever documentation shall be necessary in order to
allow the use of the files by the appropriate committee of the
Legislature and shall retain these files until the next
reapportionment has been completed.
   Each precinct shall be identified according to the census tract or
enumeration district in which it is located. When a precinct is
divided among two or more census tracts or enumeration districts, the
county elections official shall include an estimate of the
proportion of the precinct's registered voters in each census tract
or enumeration district. If the United States Census Bureau divides
or alters any census tract or enumeration district between the time
of an election and the census upon which the reapportionment is
based, the county elections official shall provide whatever
corrections or additional information may be necessary to reflect
those changes.


21001.  (a) Appropriate committees of the Legislature shall prepare
detailed maps showing the boundaries of any districts established by
this division on or after January 1, 1991. These maps shall be
prepared no later than 90 days following the enactment of any
redistricting plan pursuant to this division, and shall illustrate
the boundary lines of every district described in the redistricting
plan. The maps shall be provided to the Secretary of State for
distribution in accordance with subdivisions (b) and (c), and to the
county elections officials for use in their administrative functions
involved in the conduct of elections, not later than the first day on
which in-lieu-filing-fee petitions may be obtained for the 2002
direct primary election.
   (b) The Secretary of State shall provide each Member of the
Senate, Assembly, and the State Board of Equalization, and each
Member of Congress from California, with one copy of a map or maps of
his or her district. One copy of the entire set of maps for the
Assembly shall be provided to the Assembly Committee on Rules, one
copy of the entire set of maps for the Senate shall be provided to
the Senate Committee on Rules, and one copy of the entire set of maps
for the State Board of Equalization shall be provided to the State
Board of Equalization.
   (c) The Secretary of State shall also make copies of the maps
available for public inspection.
   (d) There shall be no charge for the maps provided pursuant to
this section.


21002.  Each house of the Legislature shall be a proper party to,
and, if not originally named as a party, shall have the right to
intervene in, any action involving the validity or application of any
statute that provides for changes in the boundaries of any
legislative districts of members of that particular house.
