Text: Please join us at our February Civic Buzz on Wednesday, February 2, 2022 by Zoom. Redistricting expert Paul Huffman, who many of us heard last year at our Annual Program Planning Meeting, will be updating us on the League’s efforts to ensure fair redistricting maps in Minnesota. Paul is a volunteer League staff member who works with national and state organizations to provide information, tools and support for local Leagues and members to assist them in census and redistricting efforts. Paul is also a member of the OurMapsMN Campaign Steering Committee for redistricting.
As the League of Women Voters Minnesota Redistricting Coordinator, Paul works with national and state organizations to provide information, resources and support to LWV Minnesota Leagues, members, and community groups to educate and engage the public to increase participation in redistricting. He was also part of the Our Maps Minnesota Redistricting Campaign Steering Committee supporting education and community mapping by underrepresented communities in Minnesota.
