In Today’s Episode We Discuss:

GERRYMANDERING

In 35 states, the state legislature controls how district lines are drawn in a process known as redistricting, which occurs once every decade following the census. A decade ago, GOP strategists laid out a plan called REDMAP (Redistricting Majority Project) to take back power through state legislatures after the 2010 Census and use that power to “gerrymander” district lines to favor Republicans. At the same time, Democrats in states like Maryland and Illinois were gerrymandering district lines to favor Democrats

“Usually the voters get to pick the politicians; in redistricting, politicians get to pick the voters” -Thomas Hofeller
