I too am curious as to why you favor 3D, assuming that is your pick.
Why not 3A? I spent a lot of time and effort working on that map.

I have not made a firm choice as yet. I am leaning toward 3D as I believe there is strength in numbers. That is why Bonnie is making a presentation to our board on Monday. It is to explain the position taken by her and, I believe, most members of the re-districting committee. I don't have a vote in this thing and am only seeking information. As I have said many times previously, it really doesn't make a whole lot of difference IMO as long as we continue to vote for our Commissioners at-large.
OK, 3A, and to cut through the clutter, can we count on you to make a motion to throw out 3D at the next meeting and maybe narrow it down to 3A and Brenda's map, with an opportunity to tweak either? You can do it..."I motion we remove 3D from consideration", cmon Robert.
Andy, what do you mean by 'strength in numbers'? Does it not concern you just a bit that there is a condescending attitude among those who are hell bent on 3D toward us coasties (reference the COE generated email above).
Andy, when you see the maps you'll understand it better.
3D would leave south walton with 1 commissioner. While the claim that the other two pittances that run through swamps, federal land, and bays would give the "potential" for the south end to have three commissioners. I find that hard to believe as the north end has fought long and hard to prevent a majority south of the bay. When you consider that there is also an effort to get single district voting on the ballot south walton could potentially end up with one district. I find it very hard that they would even come close to risking a south end majority.
