Redistricting would 'level the playing field,' Braun says in Evansville

EVANSVILLE — The loudest voices complaining about Indiana's Republican push for redistricting are Democrats whose party has ruthlessly gerrymandered congressional districts elsewhere for years, Gov. Mike Braun said in Evansville Tuesday.

Talking to reporters after the Evansville Regional Economic Partnership (E-REP)'s annual "Lunch with the Governor" event in Old National Events Plaza, Republican Braun said large and heavily Democratic states have used their Democratic legislative majorities over time to gerrymander congressional district lines within an inch of their lives.
