These days, whatever you want to do, there's an app for it! Join us for a hands-on look at one of the new redistricting apps that puts redistricting into the hands of us voters. We'll look at Princeton's Representable, one of the best of this new breed. Now redistricting is not just for wonks and computer geeks! It's "Power to the People," in the form of free tools that anyone can use (really!). Representable is designed to help community members define their "communities of interest," geographic areas that share economic, cultural, or other ties and should be kept in together when districts are drawn. But these easy-to-use tools can do more than that: they can even be used to draw and submit complete districts, to crowdsource a whole map, or to suggest improvements to whatever the legislature comes up with. Welcome to the new age or citizen-drawn maps!
