More Important Than Election Day

A timely Sunday Star-Leger story by Matt Friedman on the pending legislative reapportionment process in New Jersey. Matt covers Benjamin Brickner's excellent paper on the process in New Jersey and other states, which even if you do not agree with Ben's recommendations, is a worthwhile read. Matt's article also covers little known facts, such as what reapportionment costs the taxpayers, and mentions, as much as a straight news article can, the impact that the United States Supreme Court's Strickland decision may have on New Jersey's mapmaking process this time around.
