The Monroe County Legislature passed a historic redistricting map providing 6 Black majority districts. Leg Barnhart stated that in addition to creating 6 Black majority districts the map also protected incumbents of both parties. Leg Blankley steadfastly refused to support any map drawn by incumbents and will propose a non political plan to draw district maps in the future.
