The Monterey County Herald reports: “The referendum over Rancho San Juan was accepted Tuesday by the Board of Supervisors, which agreed to put the issue on the June ballot. The action by supervisors was expected. What wasn’t expected was a last-minute Voting Rights Act challenge to the grass-roots petition drive that placed Rancho San Juan on the ballot again.” Thanks to a reader for passing this along. No word yet on the petition for rehearing en banc filed in the Ninth Circuit.
