Redistricting: Where the League Stands
On August 6, 2025, League of Women Voters of the United States CEO Celina Stewart, Esq., issued the following statement in response to states considering mid-cycle redistricting:
"The League of Women Voters does not support a tit-for-tat approach to redistricting. State legislatures redrawing their maps mid-cycle reflects political gamesmanship that erodes public trust in our democracy. Redistricting must be fair, transparent, and rooted in the voices of voters — not partisan retaliation.
"Manipulating maps for political gain is a disservice to the people. The League stands for maps that reflect communities, not political calculations. Voters deserve stable, fair representation — not to be used as pawns in a power grab. When politicians rewrite the rules mid-game to protect their control, democracy loses.
"The League of Women Voters is ready to fight to ensure fairness for voters, no matter what politicians do for their own gain. We stand ready to protect the voices of all voters because that is what our democracy is built on."
Call to Action: Defend Fair Maps Now.
- The League urges the public to stay informed and engaged — attend hearings, submit public comments, and join local advocacy efforts to stop unjustified mid-cycle redistricting.
- Redistricting should serve the people, not politicians. Let’s keep the power in the hands of voters — not in the backrooms of political gamesmanship.
- Share the truth: redistricting is just the tool being used, but the real game is trying to keep us from knowing the corruption happening within the highest levels of power in DC.
