Competitiveness
236 comments
Important
Lower Priority
• Competitive districts are
important- they get people
involved
• Need more competitive
districts on both sides of aisle.
• Competiveness is the most
important of the criteria
• More competition = better
candidates
• Competitiveness- should only
be used after other criteria
• COIs should be prioritized
before competitiveness
• Current CD and LD are
competitive now.
• Compactness, COI, and
Geographic Boundaries are
more important that
Competitiveness.
11
Competitiveness
Definitions offered by public
• Roughly equal voter registration among Is, Ds, Rs
• Competitiveness means looking at whole district would a qualified candidate have a chance of
winning?
• Either D or R can win an election every 2 or 4
years
• The majority of legislative districts being
competitive in the general election
• Elections not decided in the primary
12
Communities of Interest
265 comments
• Partisanship has no factor in COIs
• People live with likeminded people- should use COIs
as main criteria
• Keep Flagstaff with Prescott as they are a COI and
have geographic similarities
• Don’t keep Flagstaff with Prescott as they are not a
COI with similarities
• Light rail is a tie to a COI
• Oro Valley is a COI—talked about newspaper
