Following their statewide public hearing tour, the Commission reconvened in Lansing this week to begin their deliberations based on responses toward their maps. They began today by reviewing the most common public comments they have received in Detroit, Lansing, Grand Rapids, Gaylord, and Flint. Afterward, they began evaluating collaborative and individual maps to determine which maps should go forward with further edits. The commissioners began looking at their State Senate district maps, comparing the “Elm”, “Spruce”, and “Cherry” maps along with Lange’s, Eid’s, and Szetela’s State Senate maps.
