- VOTING DISTRICTS.
- You asked for a description of the law regarding towns' responsibilities to establish voting districts. Specifically, you want to know if Coventry can have one voting district and a single polling place under the new redistricting plans. You also asked, in the event the town decides to have two voting districts, what procedures it must follow in creating them and establishing the polling places for them. ...
- A "voting district" is defined as a municipality or its political subdivision "having not more than one polling place in a regular election. " In towns that are not divided into voting districts, the legislative body determines the place for holding elections. The legislative body of each town has the authority to divide the town into voting districts and the registrars of voters must provide a suitable polling place in each district. ...
- Coventry can have one voting district and one polling place beginning with the 2002 elections. ... Congress; that is, the entire town is in a single Senate district (the 35th), House district (the 8th), and Congressional district (the 2nd). ...
- If the town's legislative body votes to divide the town into voting districts (which it can do pursuant to CGS § 9-169), the registrars of voters must designate a suitable polling place in each district. ... If the legislative body does not create different voting districts, it decides on the polling place (CGS § 9-168). ...
- A change to voting district boundaries must be made at least 90 days before the election (CGS § 9-169) except in the case of voting district changes made to conform with a redistricting plan, which are effective immediately (CGS § 9-169b). ... The law specifies that voting district lines for state and federal elections must not conflict with the lines of congressional, senate, or assembly districts. ...
2. Court To Hear Voting District Fight (Associated Press)

- Court To Hear Voting District Fight (Associated Press).
- The Supreme Court agreed to hear a voting-rights dispute over a North Carolina congressional district, possibly to try clarifying how to determine when race played too large a role in drawing election districts.
- The court said Monday it will study an appeal in which state officials argue that politics – not race – was the main factor in drawing the 12th congressional district.
- A three-judge court invalidated that district and ordered it redrawn, but Monday's action puts that order on hold until the justices hear arguments and issue a ruling.
- North Carolina's 12th District is represented by Democrat Mel Watt, one of two blacks elected to Congress in 1992 from a state that had not sent an African American to Washington since 1901.
- Disputes over the district have led to three previous Supreme Court rulings, starting with a 1993 decision that said voting districts designed to help minorities can be invalidated if they violate white voters' rights.
- In 1996, the Supreme Court declared that an earlier version of the district, which had a 57 percent majority of blacks among registered voters, was unlawfully based on race.
- State lawmakers redrew the district in 1997, creating one 71 miles long in which blacks comprised 46 percent of registered voters. ...
- In March, the three-judge panel again ruled the 12th District unlawful, saying legislators "utilized race as the predominant factor in drawing the district. ... It concluded that the district was "an impermissible and unconstitutional racial gerrymander. ...
- State officials and voters who supported the district as drawn appealed to the Supreme Court. The state's appeal said the lower court "wrongly equated mere consideration of race with racial gerrymandering," and argued that lawmakers were mainly concerned with creating a safe Democratic district.
- The state's lawyers also said it would be too disruptive to require the district redrawn with this fall's election only months away.
- Lawyers for those who challenged the district said trial evidence showed that "race was the only explanation" for the way the 12th District was drawn.

- The company has been contracted over the past three years to provide a number of services, resulting in the production of maps that assist the IEC in voting district re-delimitation, voter re-registration, electoral logistics, and a range of other important electoral processes. The AfriGIS involvement in the nation’s election processes began in late 1997 when the company won a contract to develop GIS-based software for the automated delimitation of voting districts, and for the semi-automated printing of voting district maps. ... The series of A3 size voting districts maps became the linchpin of the national voter registration drives that have now resulted in the compilation of the first national common voters’ roll for South Africa. These maps, one for each of the 14 996 voting districts in the country, display the location of the voting station, the voting district and ward boundaries, and the underlying topographic and cadastral base map information.
- AfriGIS was contracted to develop a solution that made it possible to geo-reference users via their physical addresses to their own voting district, and the system would then display an image of their particular voting district map.
- Part of the democratic transformation of local government required a reduction in the number of local and district councils from 843 to 284. ... The consequence, to the IEC, of the new municipal and ward boundary demarcation was that some of the Elections ’99 voting districts were bisected by the new boundaries. This resulted in a major program to redelimit some 2 500 voting districts and then re-register persons in their new voting districts so that the fidelity of the voters’ roll could be maintained with respect to the voters’ actual spatial location. ...
- The GIS software platform MapInfo Professional was used as the front-end for this development and AfriGIS, in conjunction with Africon Engineering, developed customised map production software applications to meet the IEC’s target to produce 35-40 voting district maps per person per hour. ...
- Additionally, a Voting Station Finder system, developed by AfriGIS using Maptitude GIS software, has been implemented in IEC call centres. A person who doesn’t know where to register or vote can simply phone the call centre, where an operator can identify their voting district from their address, and subsequently inform them of the location of their correct voting station.

- Prominent Latinos argue for voting districts in Vista.
- By: EDWARD SIFUENTES - Staff Writer Vista received a pass from an in-house committee looking into Latino voter participation when the panel said Monday that the city should keep its at-large voting system. Vista is the subject of a federal investigation under the Voting Rights Act of 1965, almost certainly because the city has never elected a Latino to its City Council even though Latinos account for about 40 percent of its residents. ...
- But some Latino experts on voting, differing with the mayor-appointed citizen's panel, say the city should be broken into districts because it would make it more likely that a Latino candidate ---- or at least a candidate of the Latino community's choice ---- can be elected.
- Based on previous Department of Justice findings, many believe the investigators will order that the city change its electoral process and create neighborhood voting districts for City Council and school board elections. ... The path to districtsExperts say the best way of addressing the scarcity of minority representation at the local level is to create majority-minority districts, in which most registered voters in a district are of an ethnic or racial minority. ... Velasquez Institute, a leading Latino voting research organization in Los Angeles. "We're in favor of district elections in which the Latino community forms the majority of a district not to elect Latinos but to elect candidates that the Latino community prefers. ... In order to find that the city should be broken up into districts for City Council and school board elections, federal investigators must prove three objectives: that a majority-minority neighborhood district can be formed in the city, that the minority group is voting as a bloc, and that voting by non-Latinos usually defeats the Latino community's choice of candidates. Latino voters lackingOne of the principal arguments the 15-member citizen's panel made against districting was that there are not enough Latinos registered to vote in the city to constitute a Latino district. ... A map of the city's distribution of Latino voters drawn by PRM Consulting, a marketing group studying Latino voting patterns, seems to indicate that large numbers of such voters live in Vista's northwestern neighborhoods, just north of Highway 78. A majority Latino district would be difficult, but not impossible to form, experts and city officials agree. ... Part of the reason Lopez said he dislikes districts is because officials elected by district would lack legitimacy. "I feel from here," he said, placing his right hand over his chest, "that I want to be elected by the people, not by a district. ... "The committee, which began its work in October, has heard presentations from sources that include a city-hired demographer, a voting rights attorney, a Latino voting rights activist and members of the community.
