[LWVNM Action] Today at 3 pm - Citizen Redistricting Committee to select maps

[Richard Mason]

I will do a summary soon. They are going to complete the Senate and Public Education Commission today and reconvene Monday or Tuesday to do the NM House. That is because they just got the Native American consensus maps for the NM House and Research and Polling needs time to integrate them into the existing maps.
For Congress they moved forward:
Concept A - somewhat status Modified Native American Consensus
Concept H - CCP maps - concerned it passed with only the 2 Republicans voting against it.
Overall the process is going well.

So, I'm late joining because I just found out about this, and I'm
completely confused. Where are the maps that are being discussed?

They just said that after a break they'll be discussing Senate maps,
and they have three maps to consider. Where would I find these
three maps? If I go to the Senate Concept Maps,
https://www.nmredistricting.org/mapconcepts/#senatedistrictmapconcepts
there are seven options, not three. The "meeting materials" PDF from
the nmredistricting.org link doesn't include any maps, or any
information about where to find the maps that will be discussed.
