Common Cause/NY’s Mapping Democracy Project has drawn the only statewide reform maps for both houses of the state legislature and Congress. Working with a Citizens’ Advisory Committee including academics, headed by CC/NY board member Sean Coffey, they started with a blank state without reference to existing district lines or incumbents, and, relying on demographic data, applied reform criteria to draw maps that provide an example of what can and should be done to achieve fair, non-politicized districts.
