Please make sure all Coloradans are well represented and reject the gerrymandered maps being pushed by Commissioners Barnett and Kottwitz.

Comment:
Commissioners Barnett and Kottwitz seem to be at work trying to change redistricting maps at the last minute. These actions should not be allowed and information concerning all plans to change maps should be made public so we can all see what is going on. The days of secrecy among parties should not be allowed and transparence is the new way of keeping everyone informed!

Dear Commissioners: Thank you for your service to the state and our communities. I understand that a non-partisan map has been completed, but Commissioners Barnett and Kottwitz are working behind the scenes to gerrymander the final result to benefit the Republican party. I urge you to reject their eleventh hour attempt to corrupt this process. Thank you.

Please reject the gerrymandering in all maps being pushed by Commissioners Barnett and Kottwitz. Transparency is the only way to guarantee fairness and non-bias.

Redistricting maps are one way in which Coloradans get a chance to truly be represented in the voting process. When political parties utilize dark money groups to change maps it is an affont to All Americans right to a free and equal representation in their state government.
Republican legislative Redistricting Commissioners Hunter Barnett (R) and Aislinn Kottwitz (R) are working with non-disclosing and unregistered GOP operatives to shove through last-minute maps that would almost certainly ensure control for Colorado Republicans over the next decade. This is wrong and should not be allowed. Reject the gerrymandered maps being pushed by Commissioners Barnett and Kottwitz.
Sincerely, mike turner

I am writing to ask that you take a stand on transparency and to reject the gerrymandered maps being pushed by Commissioners Barnett and Kottwitz. The maps need to be fair and bipartisan to be democratic.
Thank you,

I want to thank all the commissioner for their hard work over the las year.
I approve of the third staff map with Routt and Steamboat location in the House 26 district and the Senate distict 8 but would rather we be in Senate district 8.
It has come to my attention that Republican legislative Redistricting Commissioners Hunter Barnett (R) and Aislinn Kottwitz (R) are working with GOP groups to shove through last-minute maps that would ensure control for Colorado Republicans.
To my understanding of the redistricting process, this is not the way it should work. Please stop this effort and listen to the citizens you have heard from in Colorado
