FEATURE: Former Bloomington Mayor and redistricting advocate Tomi Allison speaks about Senate Bill 326, which is currently up for amendments in the statehouse. Allison and the Indiana League of Women Voters are pushing for the redistricting of electoral districts by an independent non-partisan commission, and hoping that any final implementation will include a non-partisan, independent redistricting committee. In today’s Feature Report, WFHB’s Wes Martin speaks with Allison about what she sees as the potential for political gerrymandering, if Senate Bill 326 redraws electorate districts without independent oversight.
