May 8th to 23rd
A secretive, high-tech gerrymandering initiative launched 10 years ago threatens to undermine our democracy. After the 2008 election, a secretive, well-funded partisan initiative poured money into state legislative races in key swing states to gain control of their redistricting processes and used high-tech analytics to dramatically skew voting maps based on demographic data. The result is one of the greatest electoral manipulations in U.S. history, one that poses a fundamental threat to our democracy and exacerbates the already polarized atmosphere in Congress and state houses across the country. Slay the Dragon follows everyday people as they fight to make their votes matter.
