  • Congressional Redistricting: an Overview
    Congressional Redistricting: An Overview Royce Crocker Specialist in American National Government November 21, 2012 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R42831 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Congressional Redistricting: An Overview Summary The decennial apportionment process determines the number of seats in the House of Representatives for which each state qualifies, based on population counts (for more on the apportionment process, see CRS Report R41357, The U.S. House of Representatives Apportionment Formula in Theory and Practice, by Royce Crocker). The redistricting process determines where those seats are geographically located within each state. Apportionment allocates the seats by state, while redistricting draws the maps. Redistricting is a state process governed by federal law. Much of this law is judicially imposed because, in 1929, Congress let lapse its standards requiring districts to be made up of “contiguous and compact territory and containing as nearly as practicable an equal number of inhabitants.” If Congress chooses to legislate again in this area, its authority will come from Article I, Section 4 of the Constitution, granting the authority to Congress to change state laws pertaining to congressional elections. The goal of redistricting is to draw boundaries around geographic areas such that each district results in “fair” representation. An effort to favor one group of interests over another by using the redistricting process to distort this fairness is often referred to as gerrymandering. Aside from distorting representation, it is believed by some that such gerrymandering diminishes electoral responsiveness by minimizing political competition among the parties. Many of the “rules” or criteria for drawing congressional boundaries are meant to enhance fairness and minimize the impact of gerrymandering.

  • Contingent Election of the President and Vice President by Congress: Perspectives and Contemporary Analysis
    Contingent Election of the President and Vice President by Congress: Perspectives and Contemporary Analysis Updated October 6, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R40504 Contingent Election of the President and Vice President by Congress Summary The 12th Amendment to the Constitution requires that presidential and vice presidential candidates gain “a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed” in order to win election. With a total of 538 electors representing the 50 states and the District of Columbia, 270 electoral votes is the “magic number,” the arithmetic majority necessary to win the presidency. What would happen if no candidate won a majority of electoral votes? In these circumstances, the 12th Amendment also provides that the House of Representatives would elect the President, and the Senate would elect the Vice President, in a procedure known as “contingent election.” Contingent election has been implemented twice in the nation’s history under the 12th Amendment: first, to elect the President in 1825, and second, the Vice President in 1837. In a contingent election, the House would choose among the three candidates who received the most electoral votes. Each state, regardless of population, casts a single vote for President in a contingent election. Representatives of states with two or more Representatives would therefore need to conduct an internal poll within their state delegation to decide which candidate would receive the state’s single vote. A majority of state votes, 26 or more, is required to elect, and the House must vote “immediately” and “by ballot.” Additional precedents exist from 1825, but they would not be binding on the House in a contemporary election.

With redistricting, what is fair? -What is a fair outcome, or perhaps as importantly, what is a fair process? Public Affairs Research Council of Louisiana 2 I will tell you, for starters --- Geography isn’t fair. And, geography isn’t necessarily compact for redistricting purposes; especially in Louisiana. Do bayous, rivers, lakes and bridges divide communities, or define them? What if you are drawing a district and you encounter a swampy basin – where’s the next place to go? Where’s the contiguous community of common interest? Over it? These are among the many questions and perspectives we will address today. Thank you Marie Centanni, Jenee Slocum and the Reilly Center for dedicating such a large effort to such an important issue.

The political groups we choose to align ourselves can help to transfer and explain the identities of a group of voters. With a two-party system at the national level, the U.S. would seem to be able to employ a more straightforward methodology than other developed countries for predicting voting patterns, but when Presidential voting is broken down by Congressional district, it becomes clear that the states are more than simply “red or blue”.

[TRANSCRIPT PREPARED FROM AUDIOTAPE RECORDINGS.] 2 P R O C E E D I N G S MR. CAIN: I think we are going to try to get started, so that people can leave at 4:00. Our last panel is called "Practical Perspectives on the Politics and Law of Redistricting," although we have sort of done a little bit of this in the earlier panels, but we really have some people that constantly keep their hands dirty as opposed to occasionally get their hands dirty. We have different types of practitioners represented in here. Also, I will say that we finally have a panel that has some women on it, so we are breaking the barrier with respect to men and women. Of course, Karin did set a bad example by not getting up on the first panel, but it is true that this is a profession that has been largely dominated by men until people like Nina, Lisa, and Karin have gotten involved in the last 10, 20 years. Let's start with Lisa Handley who has been a redistricting consultant for almost two decades, has written an enormous amount of stuff about redistricting and its impact, and now has her own business which has an international component to it.

  • Diabetes Drug Report (TX-32)
    Prices of Diabetes Drugs for Seniors and the Uninsured in the United States and Abroad Texas’s 32nd Congressional District Staff Report Committee on Oversight and Reform U.S. House of Representatives June 2019 oversight.house.gov EXECUTIVE SUMMARY More than 30 million people in the United States, including more than one in four seniors, have diabetes. Patients with diabetes rely on prescription drugs, including insulin, to help manage their conditions. Over the past two decades, manufacturers have systematically and dramatically raised the prices of their insulin products by more than tenfold—often in lockstep. These high prices lead many people to ration or stop taking their medications, which can result in serious health complications and even death, as the Committee heard in direct testimony earlier this year. The prices of diabetes medications—and insulin in particular—are far higher in the United States than they are overseas, in part because certain federal programs lack the authority to negotiate directly with drug manufacturers. In order to assess the impact of the high prices of diabetes medications on seniors and uninsured patients, this report was prepared by the staff of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform for the 32nd Congressional District of Texas. Costs to Seniors and Medicare This report estimates that there are approximately 13,000 Medicare beneficiaries in the district who have been diagnosed with diabetes. The 50 most popular brand-name diabetes medications used by these beneficiaries are available at significantly lower prices in other countries. For example, the cost of these drugs to the Medicare program in the district are 4.5 times the cost in Australia, 3.5 times the cost in the United Kingdom, and 2.8 times the cost in Canada.

  • Chapter 17 Elections and Voting Final Draft, August 2009
    Chapter 17 Elections and Voting Final Draft, August 2009 Elections are at the very core of democracy. Even if democracy is conceived as involving much more than elections, and even if an ideal democracy includes important forms of direct participation by citizens in many aspects of public decisions, still the most basic constraint on oppressive state authority that we have is the fact that we elect the decision- makers and can get rid of them if we dislike what they do. Any evaluation of democracy in America must include a careful examination of its electoral system and how it works. In this chapter we will explore two broad themes about voting and elections in American democracy. The first concerns an important theoretical puzzle about democratic elections: why do people bother voting in the first place? Given that a single vote almost never decides large elections, on the face of it voting might seem to be a waste of time: doing something that has no practical effects. Answering this question will help us get a sense of some of the conditions which strengthen or undermine the vitality of electoral politics. The second theme concerns the problem of how deeply democratic are elections in the United States. In the transition to democracy within authoritarian regimes the code words “free and fair elections” are often invoked in assessing democratic a society really is. There are countries that hold regular elections in which a single candidate receives 99% of the vote, but we don’t consider this in the slightest democratic. But what precisely do we mean by “free and fair”? There are obvious ways in which an election might be unfair – stuffing the ballot box, faking the numbers, preventing people from voting by intimidation or simply excluding them from the voter lists.

  • Governance of the Barangay Chairpersons in the Municipality of Ubay Bohol
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT STUDIES Vol 9, No 1, 2017 ISSN: 1309-8047 (Online) GOVERNANCE OF THE BARANGAY CHAIRPERSONS IN THE MUNICIPALITY OF UBAY BOHOL Sheena L. Boysillo, MPA Holy Name University Governance of the Barangay Chairpersons in the Municipality of Ubay Bohol [email protected] ─Abstract ─ Barangay governance plays a vital role in the empowerment of the local government units in the country. This is linked with the leader’s accountability, fairness, and transparency in the exercise of his duties and functions as a servant in his community. This study aimed to evaluate the governance of the Barangay Chairpersons in the Municipality of Ubay, Bohol. The researcher employed the descriptive survey questionnaire using quantitative design and a key informant interview using a qualitative approach. Results showed that the higher the IRA (Internal Revenue Allotment) given to the barangays, the more programs and projects are implemented because funds had been given to them as a subsidy for continuous developments. The results also indicated that majority of the Barangay Chairpersons were able to deliver very satisfactory public services in their barangays which also indicated that the core values of governance namely fairness, transparency and accountability were strengthened by the barangay chairmen during their term of office. The study concluded that the Local Government Code of 1991 paved the way for greater local autonomy to bring government closer to the doorsteps of the people. Key Words: Governance, Accountability, Fairness, Transparency JEL Classification: Z00 50 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT STUDIES Vol 9, No 1, 2017 ISSN: 1309-8047 (Online) 1.

APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF NORTH CAROLINA No. 18–422. Argued March 26, 2019—Decided June 27, 2019* Voters and other plaintiffs in North Carolina and Maryland filed suits challenging their States’ congressional districting maps as unconsti- tutional partisan gerrymanders. The North Carolina plaintiffs claimed that the State’s districting plan discriminated against Demo- crats, while the Maryland plaintiffs claimed that their State’s plan discriminated against Republicans. The plaintiffs alleged violations of the First Amendment, the Equal Protection Clause of the Four- teenth Amendment, the Elections Clause, and Article I, §2. The Dis- trict Courts in both cases ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, and the de- fendants appealed directly to this Court. Held: Partisan gerrymandering claims present political questions be- yond the reach of the federal courts. Pp. 6–34.
