"Redistricting Battles Heat Up in Wisconsin as Governor Vetoes GOP Maps"

Consultants hired by the Wisconsin Supreme Court have labeled the redistricting proposals from the Republican Legislature and a conservative law firm as partisan gerrymanders, while also stating that the other four maps, including those from Democratic Gov. Tony Evers and Democratic lawmakers, could be improved based on important criteria identified by the court. The political stakes are high in Wisconsin, where Republicans have maintained control of the Legislature despite Democrats winning statewide elections. The Wisconsin Supreme Court, with a 4-3 liberal majority, will ultimately decide which maps to enact by March 15 to meet fall candidate deadlines.
