The Senate voted 21-6 to remove Independent Redistricting Commission Chairwoman Colleen Mathis for alleged gross misconduct in the mapping of the state's political lines, an unprecedented move in Arizona's history. The vote came after strong opposition by Democrats who described the process as thwarting the will of voters, who decided 10 years ago to take the redistricting process out of the Legislature's hands. It capped off hours of waiting and uncertainty, until late in the afternoon when Secretary of State Ken Bennett, in his capacity as acting governor, issued a special session call to Mathis' removal. The Senate also approved a memorial condemning the commission for alleged violations of the Arizona Constitution.
