Term Limits Now

[WDSMHAWK]

Gerrymandering is a talking point. Drawing up districts is the job of the those elected in their states. It's the essence of democracy.

It's pretty clear that districts are being drawn up to give the party doing the drawing as many seats as possible.

That used to be a good thought. The power of incumbency, and everything that entails, now overrides the power of the voters.

Power needs to be taken back for voters.

This. Also my past company Fortune 100 RVP mandatory retirement at 65 and CEO needed board approval to stay on past 70.

Should there be age limits on voting? If there's there's a blanket assumption that, say, 75 is too old to productively serve in Congress, perhaps it is too old to select political representation. Old folks won't be around to live with the long-term consequences of their choices, after all.

Won’t bother me

Another reason I’d like to get rid of the gerrymander - have all states have to draw state/federal districts by nonpartisan committees.

There is no such thing. You'd have better luck finding bigfoot.
