Sun Cities voters have decisions to make

Communities combined in larger legislative district

Sun Cities residents will have some hard decisions to make in the general election in November.

That all changed with the mandated redistricting. The new maps, approved in January, put the Sun Cities in a single district — District 28. This new configuration is anything but compact. It stretches from the southern border of Sun City as far north as New River, and from Sun City West to I-17.
