14 state reps: Redistricting reform the antidote to Republican extremism.  (Capital Times, 11/14/2013)
“Last year Democratic Assembly candidates received 174,000 more votes than Republicans but that translated into just 39 out of 99 seats. Without gerrymandered Assembly districts, the Republican actions that are on (today's) agenda would not pass,” Rep. Mandy Wright, D-Wausau, said. “Yet Republicans want to make themselves even less accountable with (their) bills by discouraging legitimate voters from voting. Republicans are essentially telling the people of Wisconsin that their priorities, input and votes don’t matter.”
