from America's News Hour · host Talk Media Network

Bill Bernardoni continues with Andrew McKay of NewsRadio 92.3 in Pensacola, FL back to America’s News Hour for a deep and wide-ranging conversation on redistricting, representation, and the growing political fallout in states like Louisiana, Kansas, and Illinois.

A sharp, thoughtful, and entertaining segment that spans politics, process, and America’s pastime.Should states be forced to redraw congressional maps without partisan influence, or is gerrymandering simply part of the political game now? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.Follow Bill on X at @BillBernardoni, explore his work at Bernardoni.media, and read his latest writings at Bernardoni.blog.
