	AllPolitics - District Redo Redux? - Dec. 9, 1996
		"The voters of the old 11th district lifted me upon their shoulders so that the voters of the new 4th district of Georgia would be able to see and investigate my record, look at my track record and get to know me as a candidate and as a representative in Congress."
		Arguing for reinstating the majority-minority districts in Georgia, the American Civil Liberties Union told the Supreme Court those districts are fair for both black and white voters.
		But she is among those who asked the U.S. Supreme Court to reinstate her old district, the 11th.

	Cathey Steinberg promises 'interesting' race, if she runs
		When Georgia's 11th Congressional district was declared unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court last year, the state legislature tried and failed to come with a new congressional map.
		What will make the race unusual from a racial and gender standpoint should Steinberg decide to run is the candidacy of 11th District Rep. Cynthia McKinney, a two-term Democrat from south DeKalb and the first black woman elected to Congress from Georgia.
		Despite the interest surrounding Steinberg's possible candidacy, she focused her PCSW address on the progress women politicians have made in Georgia over the past couple of decades and issues of interest to women that are being dealt with in the current session of the General Assembly.
