Comment:
Any redistricting which would make legislators more subject to lobbying, less competitive or less diverse should be stopped. Hopefully the final outcome will reflect the nature of the state which is predominantly independent.

Please reject maps being pushed by Commissioners Barnett and Kottwitz and support maps drawn by nonpartisan staff.

Please use the non partisan maps drawn up for the new districts in Colorado. It only makes sense to do so! It is unfair for many years to have this be drawn by any group other than one that is bipartisan. Thank you!

Please REJECT the maps now being pushed by partisan republicans.
Use the maps voted on by the 12-person committee.

I strongly support the Third Staff plan, and believe it fairly represents my community and my home. I urge the passage of the third staff plan.

If there is a last minute attempt by republican commissioners to gerrymander, this must be rejected.

Gerrymandering has no place and should not be allowed in Colorado. Anything short of total fairness and transparency must be rejected!

The shared interest that unites my community is democracy. It appears it is under attack by Republican Commissioners Barnett and Kottwitz and their Dark Money pals. I've participated in the open meetings where many citizens and Commissioners shared the work and responsibility of following the intent of the legislation which enabled the formation of the Redistricting Commission. I was impressed that the Commission worked tirelessly to incorporate the public input into their deliberations and final maps. This has been a long, difficult, open public process. Please reject the attempt by Dark Money groups to hi-jack this process and work product at the last minute. Let's prove that it is possible to reject the continual corruption of our political process by these bad actors who can't tolerate the sunlight. Let's show that democracy lives in sunlight. Reject the actions and influence of Dark Money.
