Reactions

Co-ordinate to the Arizona Mirror'ssouth Jeremy Duda, "The final map has 13 Republican districts, 12 Democratic ones and five that would be considered competitive ... Four of those five competitive districts lean toward the GOP."[seven]

Following the Dec. 22 coming together when the last maps were initially approved, Commissioner Lerner, a Democrat, said, "I think in that location's always going to be partisanship. But I feel the partisanship exceeded my expectations." [nine] Nonpartisan Chairwoman Neuberg referenced the competitive districts, saying, "[T]hese maps volition further encourage elected leaders to pay attention to their constituents."[10]

How does redistricting in Arizona piece of work? The Arizona Independent Redistricting Committee is responsible for drawing both congressional and country legislative district lines. The commission is composed of five members. Of these, four are selected by the majority and minority leaders of each chamber of the state legislature from a list of 25 candidates nominated past the state commission on appellate court appointments. These 25 nominees comprise 10 Democrats, x Republicans, and v unaffiliated citizens. The four commission members appointed by legislative leaders then select the fifth member to round out the committee. The fifth member of the committee must vest to a dissimilar political party than the other commissioners. The governor, with a two-thirds vote in the Arizona Country Senate, may remove a commissioner "for substantial neglect of duty, gross misconduct in office, or inability to discharge the duties of office." The Arizona State Legislature may make recommendations to the commission, but ultimate authority is vested with the committee.[11] [12] [xiii]

The Arizona Constitution requires that both congressional and state legislative districts be "contiguous, geographically meaty, and respect communities of interest–all to the extent practicable." The state constitution further mandates that district lines "should [follow] visible geographic features, metropolis, town, and county boundaries, and undivided census tracts." In improver, the constitution requires that "competitive districts exist favored where doing and then would non significantly detract from the goals higher up."[thirteen]
