MACON, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) A joint Senate and House redistricting hearing took place Thursday night at the Mercer University School of Medicine Auditorium.
Local and state representatives, including State Senator John F. Kennedy (R-Macon), were in attendance for Thursday’s hearing. Kennedy is the Chair of the Senate Committee on Reapportionment and Redistricting.
The hearings are designed to gain public input about the state’s redistricting process.
“What I’m asking for is more openness and transparency in this entire process,” Macon native Danny Glover said. “Now I get that things are rushed, but as the leaders of this state we can’t afford to rush this process.”
