WHO: League of Women Voters of Southwestern Indiana and St. Lucas UCC invited the local community of all ages, races, ethnicities, creeds, and genders to learn about and improve the power of a vote.

WHAT: Options including taking a 2.1 mile “meander” along the choppy boundary of IN House Districts 77 and 78 or remaining at St. Lucas Church to learn more about how Indiana district lines are drawn for elections.

WHEN: Monday, July 10 from 6:00-8:00 pm

WHERE: St. Lucas UCC, 33 W Virginia St., Evansville.

WHY: Indiana state voting district rules allow legislators in power to draw voting districts. Hundreds of groups and thousands of people around the state are pushing for non-partisan district mapping. This event raises awareness on the topic.

And More WHY: Elbridge Gerry – the dubious and infamous father of Gerry-mandering was born in July. We walked in his dust.
