FairVote Supports Tanner Bill for Nationwide Independent Redistricting

The bill would require state legislatures to establish independent commissions who would use neutral criteria in drawing district boundaries. It would also ensure that redistricting is conducted only once every ten years.
FairVote has hailed the bill not only as a means to strip partisan politics from the redistricting process, but also as a step towards fair universal standards for elections administration in general.
