Voting Victory: Counties Ordered to Count Undated Ballots

Inquirer: An end to sinister prison gerrymandering is a racial justice victory | Opinion

Prison gerrymandering — the act of counting people for purposes of redistricting at the location of the prison instead of their home — is especially sinister. Not only are map makers silencing individual voices in government, they are in effect stealing representation from areas that are dramatically underserved while allocating that political power to whiter, more rural places that incarcerated people often have no connection to.
