On this November's ballot, voters in New York State will have the chance to vote for an amendment to the state constitution which would change the system of redistricting that occurs every ten years. While NKD has not (yet) taken a position on this proposal, we believe strongly in the ultimate goal of a fair, independent redistricting system.

On Tuesday September 30, we were visited by speakers advocating both sides.
