Capitol Confidential

Putting the Gary back in Gerrymandering


Listen Later

The next round of redistricting is still four years away, but every election is shaped by the last time the legislative boundaries were drawn.

For four rounds of redistricting, Jeff Wice was a player in New York's redistricting process. He got to experience both sides of the process, as he worked for the Assembly majority and the Senate minority.

The conversation with Wice touched on on the first use of computers in the Assembly to draw lines, the role gerrymandering has played in helping Republicans maintain a majority in the state Senate, different legal challenges to New York’s legislative boundaries and the significance of a potential question on the U.S. census in 2020.
