Two celebrities backed by a national anti-political corruption group have released videos urging Utahns to vote for Proposition 4, an anti-gerrymandering initiative.
Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence and Ed Helms, known for playing Andy Bernard in “The Office,” have both released short videos through the group RepresentUs.
“I think gerrymandering is wrong. Voters should chose their politicians. Politicians should not chose their voters. Proposition 4 stops gerrymandering,” Lawerence says in the video. “This November, say no to gerrymandering by voting yes on Prop 4.”
In Helms' video he says that politicians “literally choose who votes for them,” because they draw their own districts.
