Correction: St. Lawrence county split into FOUR Assembly districts

In reporting the new LATFOR maps released yesterday, I overlooked the fact that St. Lawrence County is divided into not three but four different Assembly districts.

The biggest chunks are divided into three pieces, one represented by Democrat Addie Russell in the North, another represented by Republican Janet Duprey in the east, and a third chunk grafted onto a big new Adirondack district.

But the plan also lops off the town of Pitcairn and attaches it to chunks of Lewis and Jefferson Counties.  That’s a lot of different political directions for a county with only around 110,000 people.

    People should look at the well-conceived plans drafted by the Citizens Redistricting Committee at: http://www.citizenredistrictny.org/reform-maps/.

    MUCH more sensible.
