In the last cycle, at the congressional level, the handful of states that
use commissions had plans with an average pro-Republican bias of 2%. At the
state legislative level, the larger number of states that use commissions
had plans with an average pro-Republican bias of 4%. So commissions don't
appear to have a systematic pro-Democratic slant, and if anything the
opposite might be the case (though the sample size is too small to know for
sure, and these figures include *all* commissions, not just
*nonpartisan*commissions).
