Fair Districts PA is an organization that seeks to end gerrymandering in Pennsylvania, by educating people about what gerrymandering is, and trying to get legislation passed in Harrisburg to form an independent Citizens Redistricting Commission to draw voting districts.
Currently, state legislators draw the maps, and this happens every ten years following the census. Gerrymandering, the manipulation of electoral maps to favor one party over another hurts everyone. It is important to know where your candidates stand on gerrymandering.
