Common Questions and Objections

Q: ZIP codes were designed for mail delivery, not politics.
A: That is correct. However, ZIP codes have become widely
recognized geographic community markers and are already used
for demographic and economic analysis.

Q: Would population differences create unequal representation?
A: Population differences would exist. The proposal prioritizes
community integrity and elimination of gerrymandering rather
than strict population equality.

Q: Would legislatures become too large?
A: Legislatures would expand. However, this may improve
representation by reducing the number of constituents per
representative.

Q: Is this a formal legislative proposal?
A: No. The project currently explores the concept and
encourages public discussion.
