One thought on “Editorial: Redistricting process should be transparent, non-partisan

  1. There should be a national law where every state has to appoint an equal number of Democrats and Republicans to draw district maps. Both Republican and Democratic states where one party has a super majority uses gerrymandering to try to ensure their party keeps control. This causes partisan legislation to pass that only 1/3 of any given State’s population supports. Look at RFRA in Indiana as an example. This concept should be something that both parties could agree on.
