The California Reapportionment Commission Proposition, also known as Proposition 20, was on the ballot in California on November 2, 1926, as an initiated constitutional amendment. It was defeated. The measure would have created a reapportionment commission composed of the secretary of state, attorney general and surveyor general, to provide for reapportionment in cases where the legislature failed to do so in the first session following a census.[1][2]
