Metro will offer free rides across its transit system during the Nov. 4 election in which voters will decide whether to approve a temporary statewide redistricting effort, the agency announced Friday.

The Nov. 4 election will decide the politically charged Proposition 50, which would temporarily redraw California’s congressional district maps in an effort to increase Democrat representation. The proposal, spearheaded by Gov. Gavin Newsom, was launched to counter redistricting efforts in Texas that added five more Republican-leaning districts.
