DAILY HERALD
— Proposal could give Hispanic residents more representation on Kane County Board – James Fuller (DIERSEN: This is racial gerrymandering.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20210521/proposal-could-give-hispanic-residents-more-representation-on-kane-county-board
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The plan drew concern from Ron Ford, the only Black county resident on the current board. His current district is part of the eight new proposed ones. Consultants said they were unable to create a majority Black district in the county because the Black population is too small and spread out. “I know for a fact that’s not what the community’s going to want to hear,” Ford said. “There’s an African-American district that works as it is.”)
