How do we calculate my vote power?

What goes into the rating for ballot measures: Representation: how much weight one vote carries here compared with a statewide vote — the smaller the district, the more each vote counts. You have more power in ballot measures because you vote directly on the policy.

Representation: Above average · 63 out of 100

This district is a good deal smaller than its state, so each vote here carries more weight than a vote in a statewide race. About 2,197,104 people live here.

Show the representation math

score = 50 + 50 × ln(state population ÷ this district's) ÷ ln(50,000) = 50 + 50 × ln(39,287,377 ÷ 2,197,104) ÷ ln(50,000) = 63.33, measured against a statewide vote in CA (grades: 66+ high, 55+ above average, 33+ average, otherwise low; a statewide race is the 50 baseline)

Above average representation + a direct vote on the policy → My vote power: High.

Ballot Measure

Supports: Public Infrastructure

Opposes: Government Spending Reduction

San Bernardino County's existing 0.5% transportation sales tax is scheduled to expire in 2040. Measure I would continue it without raising the rate until voters end it. The tax is estimated to raise $250 million yearly for roads, highways, bridges, and reduced transit fares. Audits, oversight, spending disclosure, and local control would be required. Passage needs two-thirds approval.
