Connecticut

First Tasks

• Find a precinct map. The current Congressional map is built with town-granularity, but the state legislature is more divided, so there must be smaller precincts.
• Start building/coalescing precinct results.

Significance

Low Risk Not very gerrymandered currently, and all maps require a two-thirds vote from each house of the legislature.

Who do we need to contact?

Secretary of State should have all the data.

Existing data? Partners?
