I'm currently in NY-21, was previously in NY-20, though I haven't gone anywhere. And they've already redrawn them twice, supposedly based on the last census, but both times there were problems, so they scrapped the new proposals both times.

I was in a district that included counties south of here, now I'm in one that includes the northernmost counties. And, unfortunately, that's Stefanik's district - but I don't necessarily want my district changed again, just my representation.

From what I read, the second plan was apparently scrapped since that would mean that the Democratic Rep., Paul Tonko, just south of here, would no longer live in the district he represents. Sounds like the same thing happened to Sean Patrick Maloney. Who's in charge of all this, anyway??
