En cas que el nou traçat de districtes congresionales ser controlat per una comissió independent, no partidista?

En l’actualitat, la redistribució dels límits del Congrés està controlat per la legislatura estatal cada deu anys. Gerrymandering és el nou traçat de districtes amb la intenció de beneficiar a un partit polític. Amb major freqüència es realitza pels partits polítics estatals amb la intenció de marginar els districtes de votants que representen el partit minoritari. Per guanyar seients addicionals, el partit al poder va redibuixar els districtes electorals perquè els votants del partit minoritari…

Gerrymander No More: Democrats Push for a Congress That Represents All

The bipartisan task force would investigate structural reforms like multimember districts and adding more House members in an effort to address growing polarization and distrust of Congress.Over the last two elections, Democratic Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez has shown that she knows how to win in a largely rural, Republican-leaning district. Now, she’s proposing a bipartisan House task force to consider reforms to the current winner-take-all electoral system.The resolution, which NOTUS obtained exclusively, is cosponsored by fellow Blue Dog co-chair, Rep. Jared Golden, and is set to be announced by Gluesenkamp Perez on Tuesday afternoon.The initiative comes as Democrats have begun to look at Golden and Gluesenkamp Perez with wonder after both lawmakers defeated their GOP opponents in R+6 and R+5 districts, respectively, while Vice President Kamala Harris underperformed with just about every demographic.“We need that competition,” she said. “We need that urgency.”She added that one of her goals is to “open the field” and get more candidates with working-class backgrounds running for Congress, “to have people who have turning wrenches, change diapers, drive trucks at the table.”She said that, if members know they have “lifetime tenure,” they don’t have the urgency to do constituent casework and understand where the system is failing communities.Many of the electoral reforms mentioned as potential topics for the task force to investigate aren’t new. Democratic lawmakers have floated similar proposals for years, drawing little to no attention.Some of the proposals in this resolution for the task force to investigate include holding nonpartisan open primaries, establishing independent commissions for redistricting to prevent gerrymandering, to have congressional districts with multiple members and to increase the number of seats in the House beyond 435 representatives.
