These voters want to overturn Missouri's new gerrymandered congressional map
A group called 'People Not Politicians Missouri' is actively working to overturn the state's new gerrymandered congressional map, which they believe unfairly targets a Democratic seat and dilutes voter power in Kansas City. Volunteers like Leann Villaluz are gathering signatures for a referendum to let Missourians decide the map's fate in 2026, despite legal challenges and misinformation campaigns from state officials. This effort follows a nationwide redistricting battle initiated by former President Donald Trump to maintain Republican control of the U.S. House.
Note
there is growing measurable corruption in our government today.
and that does even account for the inner corruption of politicians who are sacrificing their individuality, the spirit of representation and their constituents.
gerrymandering was a useful democracy lever we had whose time has come.
other methods to divvy up representative balance exist, but we have to survive a lot more corruption before we can even begin to experiment on a national scale.
