Despite assurances from Governor Andrew Cuomo, State Senator Tony Avella is afraid that New York's
decennial, party - controlled redistricting process will not be reformed in time for
next year's elections.
Not only have Republicans repeatedly cited gubernatorial races as the first step in their rebuilding process nationally but the governors elected over the
next two years will play a major role in the
decennial redistricting process that will help determine control of Congress for the foreseeable future.
