Colorado redistricting panel votes to end prison gerrymandering in new legislative maps

Colorado s first independent congressional redistricting committee gets first members

Colorado has its first set of citizen redistricting commissioners. On Tuesday, six of the eventual 12 congressional redistricting commissioners were randomly selected from a group of qualified applicants. The congressional redistricting commission now has two Republicans, two Democrats and two non-party-affiliated voters. Eventually there will be four from each group. Next, the remaining pool of qualified and reviewed applicants will be provided to legislative leaders who will further narrow the pool before a final random selection and judicial selection process. The same process is moving along for the state’s independent legislative redistricting commission, but about 10 days later. It will also eventually have 12 commissioners, and will randomly select its first six next week.
