    I live in Kansas City. This city has always had a physical racial divide, and now we’re getting split into a full 3 districts. It’s bullshit.

      I live just outside KC Mo. But still within the skyline. 5 to 10 minutes north via 29. I was under the impression we’d been pizza-ed a long time ago. Granted this new carving is especially egregious. IIRC practically creating a district that spanned from KC to STL to take away our representation.

      Both cities having close to half the states population but almost no representation at the state level.
