Jon but because race and politics can and do overlap, critics say it is still unfair to minority voters. They have gone too far if they do not consider race at all.

The messy process every drawing a primary map has led lawmakers to a clear conclusion. We are again embarking on an exercise that will further confuse the voters. Reason why republicans have appealed to the u. S. Supreme court trying to delay the changes. New maps and a new congressional primary date are set, but that does not mean chief Justice John Roberts cant still step in and put a hold on all of it. What does this mean for you . The most important thing is we are going to have a march 15 primary and we want those people to vote the entire ballot. Andrea the state is encouraging all voters to turn out on march 15, and still vote knowing may get passed out. Be counted. Would count. Andrea if roberts did not issue would immediately generate new primary maps and voters would have to vote again on june 7. If we get to that point and we do have to vote on june 7, the state board of elections will update its website on march 16 with all of that information about the district changes, the candidate changes, so you will be informed of that on the state or to the elections website. They also eliminated second primaries, meaning we will not be voting in any runoffs. It is important to cast the entire full ballot march 14. Eyewitness news. Steve andrea, thank you.
