Top Democratic Redistricting Group Gears Up For Era Of 'Perpetual' Combat

[RandySF]

Former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder (D) spearheaded the push for Democrats to get more active in state-level redistricting fights.

The National Democratic Redistricting Committee announced plans Wednesday to train its resources on 13 states in the 2024 election cycle: Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Alabama, Georgia, Texas, Florida, Louisiana, Arizona, Virginia, Ohio and Wisconsin.

The announcement marks a new stage for NDRC, a group founded by former Attorney General Eric Holder in 2016 to narrow the GOP’s advantage in redistricting fights.

Although the completion of the 2020 U.S. Census resulted in the creation of new congressional and state legislative districts for the 2022 midterm elections, legal battles persist and elections for positions with influence over redistricting loom on the horizon.

“We are in a new landscape,” said John Bisognano, president of NDRC. “Redistricting has evolved to a place where it seems perpetual.”

“In an environment where redistricting is no longer cyclical, this really is a new endeavor,” Bisognano added.

1. That's a damn shame.................

Americans have to fight for the right to vote, a right to protect our bodies, a right to love whomever we choose, a right to be educated with facts, a right to live free, etc.
