FORT WORTH, Texas — Bruce Miller has watched with great disappointment as a City Council-appointed task force creates the rules for the city’s redistricting process. The long-time TCU physics professor — and now professor emeritus — is one of a growing number of citizens who want the Council’s districts to be drawn by an independent body, not the council members themselves. Currently, as he sees it, the City Council is choosing its constituents, not the other way around.
