The Statewide Coalition to End Prison-Based Gerrymandering seeks to eliminate the practice of counting people in prison as residents of their place of incarceration for the purpose of legislative redistricting. S6725/A9834 would allow people in prison to be reallocated to their home communities when new legislative district lines are drawn in 2012.
