Given the usually sensitive nature of redistricting, and the interest by the media, Citygate personnel have developed significant past experience with the members of the media. The Citygate has worked with and given interviews concerning redistricting to news organizations such as CNN, the Wall Street Journal, the Idaho Statesman and the Providence Journal.
Citygate personnel have also participated in public hearings or other presentations concerning redistricting plans. Citygate’s Maptician software has been successfully used in many public hearings to demonstrate various aspects of particular redistricting alternatives. Citygate has also worked with community groups and other stakeholders to insure participation by the public.
