Daniel Ahlers on Government Reform

 

 


Establish commission for legislative redistricting

Ahlers is currently leading a petition drive to ask voters on the 2020 ballot whether an amendment should be added to the South Dakota Constitution establishing a commission to complete the legislative redistricting that occurs every decade after the census.

Filed bill for commission to establish legislative districts

Ahlers seeks to create a commission that will establish legislative districts, rather than the legislature doing its own districting. "Redistricting by a commission takes the politics out of it," Ahlers said. "A non-partisan redistricting commission ensures the district lines are drawn fairly and represent the communities they serve. The reason this comes as a constitutional amendment is the power to redistrict is delegated and defined within the state constitution."
