Final answer:

The U.S. Constitution details about electors for the President and Vice President do not specify rules for commission appointments from congressional districts. The concept presented in the question is not directly addressed in the provided Constitutional excerpts, and redistricting discussions include the partisan nature of the process and the potential benefits of using commissions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement "No more than two members of the commission shall be appointed from the same congressional district" is not explicitly addressed in the information provided. The U.S. Constitution outlines the processes related to electors for the President and Vice President but does not go into details regarding the appointment of commission members from congressional districts. Redistricting and the appointment of commissions to handle it can indeed be a partisan issue, and there are arguments for and against having commissions instead of legislators draw districts. If commissions are used, the debate is open on who should serve on them; some suggest that it should be a mix of non-partisan experts and citizen representatives to ensure fairness and reduce partisanship.
