PA:Central Bucks School District's Voting Regions Maps Hearing Proceeds To Court After Starts, Stops
CBSD Fair Votes and the Central Bucks School District will each present their proposed school board regions voting map to Judge Cheryl Lynne Austin on Thursday.
The map the district is presenting is one of four that was presented to the public during a public meeting overseen by a quickly formed Central Bucks Voting Regions Committee.
The new proposal from the school district does not take voter rolls into consideration, “packs” Democrats, and skews six regions that are heavily Republican.
Nearly 10 months ago, the school district hoped to have a new voting regions map approved even though it would have disenfranchised approximately 6,000 voters from being able to cast a timely ballot.
Currently, Central Bucks has nine regions, each represented by a school board director elected every four years, to represent constituents. A new regions map is required to be created and approved by the court every ten years following the release of data from the U.S. Census Bureau.
