Wisconsin GOP Approves Tony Evers' Election Maps, Redistricting Saga Nears Finish Line

Wisconsin Republicans have approved new district maps that would weaken their stronghold on the state legislature, fearing that the Democratic-controlled state Supreme Court could impose even less favorable ones. The move comes after the court struck down the existing maps, which heavily favored Republicans. If approved by Governor Tony Evers, the new maps would significantly reduce the Republican majority in the state Assembly and Senate. However, Democrats are disappointed with the missed opportunity to secure even more favorable maps, and the possibility of further legal battles looms.
