The local League of Women Voters will have a focus on legislative redistricting when they observe the National Day of Action Thursday.
Sarah Brechwald with the local league says there will be a news conference open to the public Thursday afternoon at 4 at the Christian County Justice Center.
While Brechwald believes everyone’s view should be heard, she says the local Leauge would like to see the entirety of Christian County as one district in the state House instead of being divided into three districts as it is now.
Lawmakers will be tasked with redrawing the district lines based on census data during the 2022 session. Christian County currently includes Districts 4, 8 and 9 and there have been three districts in Christian County for at least the last 20 years.
District 4 includes a portion of Christian and all of Caldwell, Livingston and Crittenden counties. District 8 includes portions of Christian and Trigg counties and District 9 is made up of portions of Christian and Hopkins counties.
