I am one of many, but certainly the only Republican candidate, that is calling for a non-partisan panel to handle redistricting duties. I believe that not only is it the right thing to do for the State, but that it can only strengthen the Republican party by making legislators win elections through sound ideas and leadership, not by how good they are at carving out loyal supporters from a map.
