CONFUSION ABOUNDS!  Redistricting proposal has been sent to Department of Justice for Approval. Madison County citizens have been asking if they could provide input to the Department of Justice review of the proposed Madison County Redistricting. The Madison County proposed redistricting request was sent last week asking for "expedited review" so it is important to get any responses in quickly.

Chief Christopher Coates
Voting Section, Civil Rights Division
Room 7254 - NWB

Everyone needs to read the Attorney Generals comments about the Madison County lawsuit and rushing through the redistricting... See the AG's comments:http://tinyurl.com/697opqr AND http://tinyurl.com/5r33cgq I think AG HOOD is correct about this matter... why put the entire system in gridlock for no reason!
