CAMPAIGN RECAP

The threat of gerrymandering is serious. But talking about it doesn’t have to be.

Politicians are redrawing voting districts and rigging elections for the next decade. We needed a hands-on way to demonstrate how unfair rigged districts are, to engage and mobilize everyday Americans who might not know about the threat. For two weeks, Gerry’s Partisan Pizza travelled America, stopping in states at serious risk of gerrymandering to sling hundreds of pizzas and recruit thousands of Americans in the fight for fair elections.

Gerry’s Partisan Pizza generated a lot of buzz – featured in newspapers and on TVs across America, including in some unconventional outlets.

The Freedom to Vote Act is our chance to stop congressional gerrymandering – and we can pass it if we mobilize enough supporters. Sometimes that starts with a slice of pizza.
