Republicans Speak Out On New Redistricting Maps

Multiple State Representatives spoke out about the new maps presented by Democrats for redistricting. The House Bill, HB 2777, was passed in the late hours on Friday evening creating new maps for the next ten years. The final vote was along party lines and Representative Avery Bourne says that Democrats manipulated the data.

 

 

Representative Bourne says they aren’t listening to the experts. She continued by saying that even President Biden has said to put an end to gerrymandering.

 

 

State Senator Chapin Rose says that this is a fake front put on by Democrats. He asks why aren’t we taking our time to do this right.

 

 

State Senator Steve McClure says Democrats pushed it through at 2 AM so most experts couldn’t testify.

 

 

The bill now goes to the Governor’s office for signature or veto.
