Action: Sept 26-Oct 5. PLEASE COMMENT on Utah redistricting maps

The public can help to UNDO gerrymandering in Utah

THERE ARE DEADLINES:  PLEASE FINISH BY OCT 5TH

History: 

In 2018 voters decided that we wanted fair district maps - no gerrymandering in Utah.  Gerrymandering is a process of packing unlike voters together and dispersing like-minded voters so that, in effect, the politicians pick their voters.  Our laws and constitution intend for voters to select their lawmakers.

The Utah legislature IGNORED the voter's rights and imposed a gerrymandered map on us in 2020-2021. Their map resulted in 4 GOP house members whereas one democratic House member had been elected prior to the gerrymandered redistricting.

Lawsuits followed.  Now, 8 years later, voters finally have a chance at getting what is required by law in proposition 4.  See commentary by Brian Schott here:

WE CAN VOTE ON 6 possible MAPS.
