Joint Select Committe on Redistricting Maps Unveiled

Today, the Joint Select Committee on Redistricting unveiled their maps.

Here is one of the Republican maps:
“Republicans have been clear about our plans for redistricting all along—Coloradans deserve a map that is fair, with district lines adjusted to account for population growth and shifts."
    --Speaker Frank McNulty

Here is one of the Democrat maps:

“It’s clear that each of these Democrat maps were drawn with Senate President Brandon Shaffer, D-Longmont, and Sen. Morgan Carroll’s, D-Aurora, political ambitions in mind; not the people of Colorado.   The Democrat maps split Douglas County and El Paso County.  These maps combine Boulder with Grand Junction, Montezuma with Fountain, and are clearly drawn for the personal politics of a select few." --Speaker Frank McNulty
