The Pathfinder Report - Episode 7 - The Art of Packing & Cracking: Redistricting

Fun fact: voting districts can look like salamanders, but you have to do some packing and cracking to get there. On this episode of the Pathfinder Report, Joel and Glenn bring in special guest Andrew Mullins to talk about a hot topic in todays political realm: Redistricting/Jerrymandering (they are, in fact, different terms for the same thing). Why is it important, why are we talking about it, and how do we as a country "beat" it? Andrew Mullins currently works in political advertising in the state of Virginia. His experience spans multiple presidential campaigns, PACs, and advocacy orgs, and is a Generation Joshua alumni from its early days.
