I was glad to see that LWV Utah successfully sued their legislature for their gerrymander ed maps this week and that the Kansas legislature refused to redistrict mid-cycle in spite of the pressure from the president. 
People are indeed standing up for fair elections, and they are horrified that the president just pardoned the 77 ? who were involved in the 2020 false elector scheme.

New Poll: Voters Want New Leadership – and They’re Turning to Independents | Independent Voter News


Gerrymandering and the Erosion of Trust

Beyond leadership concerns, the poll shows a growing unease with gerrymandering, the manipulation of district boundaries for partisan gain. Respondents overwhelmingly agreed that distorted maps silence voters and weaken accountability.

In fact, 64% of respondents agreed that politicians who draw their own districts are “rigging the election.” The poll's results found that many Americans see this as a root cause of political dysfunction and 56% support the use of independent redistricting commissions.

“Gerrymandering isn’t just a technical issue—it’s a trust issue,” Forcum said. “When voters feel like the system is rigged, they check out. And that’s exactly what the parties are counting on.”
