To: The North Carolina State House, The North Carolina State Senate, and Governor Roy Cooper

Citizens for Creating Non-Partisan Redistricting Commission

We, the undersigned, demand that Governor Perdue create and that the legislature approve a nonpartisan redistricting commission to draw up voting districts that represent the voters of North Carolina without influence by any political party.

Why is this important?

North Carolina voters have no input into the decisions that create our voting districts. In fact, we are forced against our will to be herded like sheep into the most bizarre districts that limit our voting rights and eligible candidates, which leads to misrepresentation of our opinions and values in state and national government.

We demand that Governor Perdue and the North Carolina Legislature quickly develop and appoint a nonpartisan commission which serves and represents the people of North Carolina avoiding the legal process facing us and before the primary elections in May.
