Redistricters take ‘final’ recess…

Idaho's citizen redistricting commission has now taken what members say will be their "final recess," until 3:30. GOP Commissioner Lou Esposito said Republican commissioners are "in the process ... of bringing down a map" to incorporate the North Idaho compromise with discussions on eastern Idaho and a proposal for Ada County. He said he hoped "with a little tweaking in the Bannock County area, the Pocatello area, we'd be able to get it done." Co-Chairman Evan Frasure responded, "We're down to two hours now. ... If it's beneficial we can keep bantering back and forth, but ... we don't have much luxury of time here."
