Redrawing the Boundaries: A Midwest Redistricting Discussion Q&A session with George Mason University's Mike McDonald and the Brennan Center's Justin Levitt. Recorded in Chicago, IL on Oct. 22, 2009.
Questions include:
Is it a good idea for the courts to draw some of the district lines?
Do you have any kind of script that goes with your presentation maps? Because I think that the first basic story is, "Pretty isn't good."
What's the most effective makeup of an advisory, backup or independent commission?
What's the national perspective on the use of citizen initiative to bring accountability and transparency to redistricting?
