Lockyer Is Accused of Stacking Deck Against Initiatives

By Robert Salladay, Times Staff Writer

SACRAMENTO — In the months since Atty. Gen. Bill Lockyer declined to run for governor — citing the "obscene" divisiveness of politics — he has found time to take his 2-year-old son to Disneyland and devour the gothic thriller "The Shadow of the Wind."

But his surprising April announcement has not removed Lockyer from the world of divisive politics.

The Democratic attorney general has become, in fact, a major pain to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Republicans and conservative activists who have been pushing their agendas in the November special election and beyond.

Lockyer — who under state law is required to review voter initiatives — has prompted complaints about what Republicans see as a liberal bias in his actions on four initiative efforts this year.

In the most recent case, a judge ordered a Schwarzenegger-backed redistricting measure off the ballot after Lockyer sued over a procedural flaw. His actions also have prompted the governor to delay his planned overhaul of the pension system for public employees and spurred the threat of another lawsuit by backers of a constitutional ban on same-sex marriages.

In accusing him of bias, Republicans say Lockyer all but conceded the point last week by agreeing to rewrite a legal summary of the governor's budget spending cap initiative. GOP lawyers had complained that Lockyer's original summary of Proposition 76 contained errors and misrepresentations.

1. give me a break!

Lockyer bragged about voting for Ahnuld in the recall.

Lockyer will never get my vote for anything ever again. All he's doing now is covering his political ass.

3. Recommending. Just in case what they have in mind for Lockyer is the

same as the smear they pulled on Shelley. We need to be alert this time. The last thing we need is a repug Attorney General.
