Event Description

FDPA volunteer speaker Mark Pavlovich will present Protecting Democracy: Redistricting and Gerrymandering for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI). This presentation will provide information about Pennsylvania’s redistricting process, how politicians have used it to draw district maps that benefit themselves and influence election outcomes through “gerrymandering,” and how that process negatively impacts the Commonwealth. A solution will be offered that has worked in other states and can end the manipulation of redistricting by politicians.

This event is open to the public and registration is not required. Seating is first-come, first served and parking is available.
