During the January 4th Commissioners Meeting, Jo Nicholas, President, LWVMC, spoke about the importance of the Commissioners approving Option 6 Redistricting Map for the people of Moore County.  After she spoke the commissioners unanimously voted to accept Option 6 map.Thanks goes to Carolyn Mealing, Barbara Farr, Linda Tableman, O’Linda Gillis and Jean Burbage for their work on this endeavor and our study on Redistricting for Equal Representation.  Now we wait for the Commissioners to approve resolution to accept as final.  It has been since 2005 that LWVMC has been working on this issue for the people of Moore County.  We are almost there!!!
