Nearly three-quarters of New York voters oppose attempts by the state government — which is controlled by Democrats — to redraw congressional districts to favor their candidates in the elections next year, a new poll found.
Eighty percent of respondents agreed with the New York State Constitution clause that declares “districts shall not be drawn to discourage competition or for the purpose of favoring or disfavoring incumbents or other particular candidates or political parties.” “The poll shows that the Democrats are going against the will of the people,” Republican pollster John McLaughlin, who conducted the survey, told the Post. “They’re not supposed to do partisan gerrymandering.”
The court then appointed a neutral special master to draw more balanced lines and Republicans subsequently recaptured control of the House, picking up three seats in the lower chamber.
