Tell your representatives: NH Needs Fair Maps, Not More Gerrymandering

On Wednesday, Politico released the article White House puts New Hampshire on notice, referencing President Trump’s nationwide push for states to conduct mid-decade redistricting to directly benefit the conservative party. According to the piece, “a person familiar with the White House’s thinking told West Wing Playbook that Trump’s team doesn’t plan to back off New Hampshire,” and that “the White House is prepared to use a take-no-prisoners approach.” Adding to the urgency, State Senator Dan Innis has officially filed a bill to commence mid-cycle districting in NH, despite Governor Ayotte noting in August that the “timing is off” for a redraw. This development emphasizes the need for action.
