The North Dakota Independent Redistricting Commission Amendment did not make the November 2012 ballot in North Dakota as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment. The measure would have established a five-member commission to draw legislative districts every 10 years at the release of federal census data. Specifically, four of the commission's members would have been picked by both Democratic and Republican leaders. The fifth member would have been unanimously chosen as the chairman of the commission.[1]
The proposal was sponsored by Rep. Corey Mock.
