KCDems: Texting to stop redistricting procedure changes

All members and all Democrats we need your participation to prevent this Republican effort at gerrymandering from happening.  An Idaho commission consisting of six (6) members was approved by the electorate.  The procedure allows the Democrats and Republicans to each appoint three (3) members.  Since the commission is evenly split between 3 Democrats and 3 Republicans the members have to agree and compromise to approve any changes to the district lines.  This has worked well in the past and Idaho has remained a State without serious problems with the district composition,  The republicans are now trying to change the process.  They are attempting to add a seventh member to the commission who by law would be appointed by a Republican.  The result is always a 4 – 3 vote with the Republicans always in the majority.  There is no rationale for this other than a power grab attempt by republicans.
