  • Raise a Glass and Draw the Lines Happy Hour for Democracy

    Joined by a passionate group of attendees, the Draw the Lines team was pleased to explain how current redistricting processes perpetuates gerrymandering, and how PA's citizens themselves can #slaythegerrymander. Led by Project Manager, Chris Satullo, attendees enjoyed drinks, food and interactive activities at Knob Hall Winery in Gettysburg, PA over a stimulating discussion about DTL's newly launched mapping initiative and contest. We thank everyone who attended for their engagement and willingness to try our free mapping tool, DistrictBuilder.
