0

Leaders of the Senate are calling for California state Senator Rod Wright, who represents an Inglewood-area district, to resign after he was sentenced Friday to three months in prison for perjury, voter fraud and other charges related to lying about where he lived when he ran for office, the Associated Press reports. If Wright is expelled or resigns, Gov. Jerry Brown would need to call a special election to fill his seat.
