Participative Democracy

Very strongly agree

Yes

Participative Democracy emphasizes the importance of citizen involvement and equal representation in the political process. An independent, non-partisan commission would help ensure that districts are drawn fairly and without political bias, promoting equal representation and reducing the influence of political parties on the redistricting process.
