National media casts it's eye on Ever's new approach to creating competitive districts. WASHINGTON, DC - Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers (D) is taking a new weapon into the fight for control of the decennial redistricting process in a state where Democrats say Republicans have consistently built themselves a gerrymandered advantage. Evers has ordered a new independent redistricting panel to draw congressional and legislative district maps after the 2020 Census results come in next year. The panel, he said in an interview, would craft lines with an eye toward creating competitive districts across the state, rather than seats that are heavily skewed toward one party or the other. |
