Bucks County redistricting

Re the proposed redistricting of the ten legislative Districts in Bucks County, I believe the first priority should be to maintain the logical integrity of existing municipalities. I think the current proposal, as far as I can determine, does that reasonably well. Thereafter, there are several other important cultural, political registration, and other variables that need to be considered. These factors do not always drive solutions in the same direction, which is why - even in a transparent, even handed, non partisan process - a “perfect” solution is difficult to achieve in everyone’s eyes. I am of the opinion that if following local municipal boundaries leads in some cases to non-competitive districts, then that reflects the values of those local communities and is acceptable. We should not twist logically connected municipalities purely to achieve competitive districts.
