Redistricting Commission to meet tomorrow
The Congressional Redistricting Committee will hold its second and third public hearings tomorrow as part of a process that so far has consisted of committee members saying nothing or something innocuous enough to have the effect of nothing.
Insiders continue to remark on this process – fulfilled with far less evident urgency than the legislative process, where machine political interests along with their lieutenants in public office, had a power stake.
“Tomorrow’s hearings in Newark and New Brunswick are intended to give the commission the benefit of public testimony,” said 13th tiebreaking member John Farmer, dean of the Rutgers University Law School. (Pizarro, PolitickerNJ)
