Every 10 years, states calibrate voting districts to reflect their changing populace. But Pennsylvania’s new legislative and Congressional maps are late. How will that affect voters and candidates? And what makes a map fair? 

Senior producer Megan Harris talks to reporter Kate Huangpu with Spotlight PA and David Thornburgh, senior advisor with the Committee of 70, which submitted a collaborative Congressional map for consideration last year.

Read the latest on Kate’s redistricting reporting here: https://www.spotlightpa.org/news/2022/01/pennsylvania-primary-2022-redistricting-delays/

Music on City Cast Pittsburgh is composed by Benji. See him perform live at the Greer Cabaret Theater this Friday, and say hello if you see us in the crowd.
