(LaPorte County, IN) - The League of Women Voters is looking for help to make sure congressional districts are divided fairly.

After every census, congressional maps are reviewed and often tweaked, a process that can be very political.  La Porte County’s League of Women Voters is seeking people to provide input on the Indiana Citizens Redistricting Commission.  The commission will meet over the next two months and will lobby legislators to adopt their recommendations.

The commission will collect ideas from the public and will sponsor a map-drawing competition for cash prizes.  Applications are needed by January 4.  Apply at the League of Women Voter’s website. www.lwvlaporte.org.
