Will we ever see an end to Gerrymandering? Not as long as Democrats are in control.
States like New York, Illinois, Maryland, and California live by Gerrymandering. And it’s not changing soon. Worst is California,
California has what’s called a California Citizens Redistricting Commission (CCRC). Something they tried in Ohio, but the voters were too smart to go that route. Tell me what you noticed about how the California Commission works.
According to the state constitution, the first eight commissioners are selected by a panel of three independent officials from the state auditor’s office. (What party is the auditor?) That panel narrows down applications to 120 — 40 Democrats, 40 Republicans and 40 registered with no party preference — and then down to 60 applicants, 20 from each subpool. Then, the Legislature gets to remove as many as 24 names from the list (eight from each subpool). (Who controls the legislature?) Finally, the auditor randomly draws eight names. These first eight commissioners then select the final six members by selecting two from each subpool.
