With Wisconsin often called one of the most Gerrymandered states in the union, Shereen Siewert, host of “Simply Superior’s” sister show, “Route 51”, welcomes political scientist Eric Giordano of the Wisconsin Institute for Public Policy and Service for a discussion about the history and practice of political redistricting. While Gov. Tony Evers has appointed an independent committee to propose new maps following the 2020 Census, Giordano discusses whether such an effort can be truly nonpartisan and objective.
Also, the music of “One Less Guest.”
Rounding out the show is a look back at the week’s news headlines. Washington is joined by WPR reporter Danielle Kaeding and the Star Tribune’s Brooks Johnson for a review of the biggest news moments of the past week.
