Voters appear to have approved the redistricting proposition:

I KNOW is saw it, but cannot find it fr the life of me but,

i saw that Chairman Margeson has assigned committee to look into the number of Legislators as well as how the Executive is chosen (elected or appointed by Legislature)

while these are good questions to be asking, i think its also important to give equal weight to studying a return to a Board of Supervisors in place of a Legislature.

I did send him an email( after deleting the question of FB not right place for it anyways)

hoping at minimum a reply best case is they do actually look at it

Sure they’ll look at it. Then laugh and mine on.

You’re asking 15 people to vote themselves out of a salary and insurance. Riiiighht.

I touched on this over in the "Chemung County Politics Open Chat" (if you want to pick it up in that thread)

 He assigned a Term Limits Committee for now and there was a suggestion to also form one look into the number of Legislators and elected vs appointed Exec/Treasurer
