Today, the Senate took a significant step toward eliminating gerrymandering in our legislative districts by voting to end the practice of counting incarcerated people in prison rather than in their home towns, for purposes of redistricting. (1/3) — PolitiTweet.org

This measure will give a more accurate population count and will also result in fairer legislative districts that more accurately represent communities from which they're drawn. People should be counted where they live, not where they are being held due to incarceration. (3/3) — PolitiTweet.org
