From the transcript
Like I talked a little bit about in the, in the presentation part of this. However, if the voters ultimately decide to support Prop 2 and it passes, then it is the obligation of Lieutenant Governor to, to respect the will of voters and implement it with good faith. And so yes, that means kind of rolling our system back to where it was some years ago. But again, you staff a department with professionals, you make sure that you do the work early in a way that is accountable and transparent, such that when it comes around to vote again in 2 years, voters have confidence in how the system is enacted and we are able to administer our elections without any to-do or drama.
