To: Maine Redistricting Commission
Stop the Radical Republican Plan for Redistricting in Maine
Tell the Legislature’s special redistricting commission not to accept the extreme Republican plan to radically redesign Maine’s Congressional districts.
Why is this important?
National Republicans have a radical plan to move 360,000 Maine people from one Congressional District to another and they’re getting their allies in Maine to try and push it through the legislature. Their plan would put 10,000 more Republicans into the Second District to turn it into a Republican Congressional seat and a vote for a Republican presidential candidate. Not only that--139 communities would lose their current representative in Congress, including Lewiston-Auburn, Bath and Rockland and Chellie Pingree’s hometown would be moved out of her Congressional District.
