The Gerrymanderlorian with David Imamura

It’s hard to overstate what's at stake as states redraw their congressional districts this year. We get a behind-the-scenes look at how redistricting works from David Imamura, chair of New York State's redistricting commission.  But first, we fly back to Ukraine for a reminder that civilians are more than just pawns on Putin’s chess board, we throw some fresh powder on the sledding hill that is the Biden Boom, and we bid farewell and good riddance to a radical (and now headless) snake.
