Questioning Ad Aspera 2 maps
This week the Kansas Senate and House of Representatives both passed the “Ad Astra 2” Congressional map as part of the every-10-years redistricting process that is happening across the nation. Depending on what you read or listened to, this map was either the best solution possible or a flat-out gerrymander, with little opinions in between. The League of Women Voters of Kansas (LWVK) does not support the Ad Astra 2 Congressional map due to issues that go beyond these talking points. We believe the best and fairest districts are based on input from the people who reside in them and the process of drawing Ad Astra 2 did not take that into consideration to the extent possible. We also never learned how this map was created or why decisions were made. A map created behind closed doors should not be allowed to guide our state’s future.
