Douglas County debates split in district map redraws
State Sen. Marci Francisco signals a possible split of Douglas County into congressional districts with Lawrence moving to the 1st District and the rest staying in the 2nd. Local lawmakers also consider eliminating current cross county House districts that dilute Douglas County representation, noting only four of six House members actually reside in the county.
