What Supreme Court ruling Republicans need to go to when redistricting. Gerrymandering has been used by both Democrat and Republican redistricting. Georgia just got their redistricting approved by a Federal Judge and the left doesn’t like it.
Progressives wanted a second gerrymandered black district. But their upset in the creation because another black district was reshuffled. The judge rejected their claim.
Judge Jones rejected the objections from the voters, writing that while the General Assembly drew the new congressional voting boundaries to protect their majority “as much as possible,” redistricting decisions by a legislature “with an eye toward securing partisan advantage does not alone violate Section 2.”
Here is what Republicans need to use as their battle cry. The Supreme Court in 2019 effectively allowed state lawmakers to draw voting lines to achieve their partisan goals when it ruled that federal courts don’t have a role in deciding partisan gerrymandering claims.
