Vol. XXXI XXXVII No. 04 La Prensa Muñoz, Inc., Publications JANUARY 28, 2011 New Panel Holds Bonita All Stars Champions of the AYSO U10 All Star Tournament Key to Minority Political Power in California By Nina Martin NEW AMERICA MEDIA

A powerful new governmental body has quietly begun a task that will have far-reaching consequences for the rights of minority voters through- out California for years to come. As all eyes turn to Gov. Jerry Brown, the new Legislature, and their efforts to whip a deeply dysfunctional California into working order, the state’s new Citizens Redistricting Commission has begun its own work almost unnoticed. Yet its decisions will have an enormous impact on who runs California—and the kinds of policies and laws those men and women make—for the next decade and beyond. The 14-member panel, selected from 30,000 civic-minded applicants in a complicated process that took much of last year, is more diverse AYSO U10 All Star Tournament took place on January 15, 2011 and the semi-final and championship game on January 22, 2011. than California’s population as a On Saturday January 15 the boys U10 Bonita All Stars (West) competed and won both of their games against the Bonita All Stars (East) 5-2 whole, with four Asian/Pacific Island- and the Spring Valley All Stars (West) 7-0.
