Democrats have agreed to give up an advantage in redrawing the state’s political districts for the next 10 years in exchange for a commitment from Republicans to stop blocking bills in the Oregon Legislature with delay tactics.  The deal reached Wednesday night gives Republicans as many members as Democrats on redistricting committees in exchange for no longer requiring bills be read in full before a final vote.  While the deal leaves the potential for deadlocked votes for redistricting, Republican 59th District Representative Daniel Bonham points out his party has incentive to reach a deal on legislative districts, with the process shifting to Democrat Secretary of State Shemia Fagan if they can’t pass new boundaries by late September.  Should lawmakers fail to come to an agreement on new Congressional districts, the matter would be settled in the courts.
