Read the NO on 11 site. Its a who's who of leftist interest groups and the state Democratic Party establishment. I can understand why they oppose an admittedly imperfect reform or for that matter ANY reform. Keeping power is human nature and self interest overrides idealism here.

If they were serious about wanting a redistricting proposal to make districts competitive, they wouldn't have offered this convoluted plan, IMO.
