Very helpful! And when you mention your friend’s experience locally, it reminded me of my neighborhood discovering a few years ago that the county school board member we vote for is not the school board member responsible for the schools we are zoned for. CRAZY! You would think aligning school zones and school board member districts would be easy. All this to say it’s very hard, but we can do hard things if we really want to!
Absolutely fabulous explanation with possibilities for fixing the voting debacle we're in. Too bad we don't have a congress interested in addressing the problem and they certainly lack the motivation to fix it and lose their precious seats. UGH.
Thanks to Sarah, Uncap the House is my new battle cry. I mention it at every opportunity. It will be my primary question for my House Congressional candidates. Seriously, if they don't want to discuss increasing Indiana representation, I don't want them as my representative.

Wait it's not?!?! That feels like a mistake!!!!
Thank you J, for asking this question! I was left wondering the same after the discussion of gerrymandering the other day. This was so helpful!
