Attend the Spokane County Redistricting Committee’s Public Hearing on Thursday, August 12 from 5:30-7:30 in person or by phone or Zoom --details on the County Redistricting calendar
The Spokane Area League of Women Voters and other Spokane County community organizations are united for fair and equitable representation in Spokane County. This means:
- Increasing the representation of Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) voters and
- Creating competitive and fair districts so elected officials are responsible to their constituents since we are growing from 3 to 5 districts. We deserve accountable and responsive local leaders.

Your voice is needed: Tell the Spokane County Redistricting Committee you want fair and equitable districts to be drawn -- before they publish their draft plan!
No matter our color, background, or whether we live on a country road or in the City of Spokane, Cheney, Airway Heights, Spokane Valley, or Deer Park, most of us believe that voters pick our leaders, our leaders do not pick their voters. To determine how we will be represented and how funds for essential services will be allocated, we come together every decade to draw new district lines that give each of our votes equal weight, each of our voices equal stature, and each of our communities equal resources.
Certain politicians are trying to draw district lines to divide us, so they can choose which voices to heed and which to silence. When we come together to speak out for fair districting, we can make our communities whole and deliver what our families deserve and our county needs for a decade to come.
