5-District Mapping Tool
Proposed sequencing for all maps:
Odd districts: 2026
Even districts: 2028
Each by-district map must follow this set of ranked Districting Criteria:
- Relatively equal in size – total deviation is under 10%
- Contiguous – election districts are one whole piece and don’t jump from one area of the district to another with gaps in between
- Maintain communities of interest
- Easily identifiable and understandable lines, following natural (rivers, mountains) and man-made boundaries (main thoroughfares, highways)
- Keep election districts compact – election districts should be more circular or rectangular, and not snaking lines or ribbons
