California Counts

California Counts is an organization and campaign based in Sacramento, California, United States, advocating electoral reform in that state. The organization's focus is securing a statewide initiative in June 2008, specifying that California's 55 electoral votes be divided up not on a statewide basis, but on the basis of the state's individual congressional districts.
Signature gatherers are working to collect the 434,000 signatures that are necessary in order to get the initiative on the ballot.〔("Race is on to qualify Calif. electoral change," ) by John Marelius, ''San Diego Union-Tribune', November 19, 2007〕 As of December 1, 2007, organizers have failed to raise $2 million for petition circulators and their target of 700,000 signatures to allow leeway for disqualified signatures.〔("Electoral College campaign still needs signatures" ), Los Angeles Times〕 The initiative will not appear on the June 2008 California direct primary election ballot〔(Elections and Voter Information ), California Secretary of State〕 to affect the 2008 presidential elections because of lack of funding and time.〔("Electoral vote measure fails to make June ballot," by Dan Morain, ''Los Angeles Times'', December 7, 2007. )〕
==Motivation==
According to ''The Independent'' newspaper, the campaign, while being presented to California voters as a populist issue, in actuality is being engineered to assist the Republican Party in winning the United States presidency in 2008 by giving the Republican candidate 20 more electoral votes.〔("Tempers flare over electoral petition: Democrat Chief Seeks Probe," ) by Steven Harmon, ''San Jose Mercury News'', November 2, 2007〕〔("The plot to rig the 2008 US election," ) by Johann Hari, ''The Independent'', November 29, 2007〕 Nearly all the individuals and organizations listed in the "Endorsements" section of the California Counts official website are affiliated with the Republican Party.〔("Endorsements" page, California Counts official website )〕
