“The Wisconsin Supreme Court docket on Friday ordered the Republican-controlled state Legislature to attract new legislative boundaries forward of the 2024 election, arguing their GOP benefit is unconstitutional — delivering a long-sought win for Democrats who’ve stayed deep within the Legislature’s minority for greater than a decade,” the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel stories.
“The court docket in a 4-3 determination launched Friday afternoon mentioned the court docket can also be ready to write down the brand new maps themselves if the Legislature and Democratic governor can not agree on a brand new plan.”
“The court docket ordered lawmakers to attract new maps by August, when the subsequent legislative major election takes place. The ruling forces half of the state Senate and the total Meeting to run in new legislative districts.”
