Know Before You Vote

Find out where candidates in the 2022 primary elections stand on redistricting reform and procedural rules that ensure bipartisan solutions get a vote.

We asked candidates for PA Senate (only even numbered districts are up for election) and PA House to answer the following survey questions:

  1. What is your position on an independent citizens redistricting commission?
  2. What is your position on legislation to ensure transparency, public input and clear, enforceable criteria for redistricting?
  3. What is your position regarding changes to procedural rules to ensure bills with clear bipartisan support receive a vote in committee and both chamber floors?

Candidates were invited to provide up to 3 links to their own statements or webpages. For incumbent candidates, we’re also providing co-sponsor information on bills and resolutions Fair Districts PA supported or opposed in the recent sessions.
