After the New York City Districting Commission turned down its own redistricting map, some Queens lawmakers have once again voiced their criticism for how the process has played out. One of the more vocal critics is District 24 Councilman James Gennaro.

Gennaro — who represents Kew Gardens Hills, Pomonok, Electchester, Fresh Meadows, Hillcrest, Jamaica Estates, Briarwood, Parkway Village, Jamaica Hills and Jamaica — feels his experience working in previous redistricting processes qualifies him to be very critical of the process.
