The coalition of citizens and community groups accusing the city of racial gerrymandering want the judge to order special elections in each of the city’s five commission districts as early as November. Such an outcome — though far from a certainty — would cut short the terms of multiple sitting commissioners and force them to run for their current seats or to campaign in new districts under a drastically different voting map.

    Ranked ballots and proportional representation, for fuck’s sake. Get rid of the squiggly lines. Just broadly circle the area that’d get five whole districts, and let them elect five whole people, altogether.
