We are. Politico: “Republican litigators have increasingly advanced… a reading of the Constitution that state legislators have near-ultimate authority over many election-related decisions, including redistricting, and that state courts have a limited ability – or none at all – to act as a check.” Here’s the kicker: “So far, four conservative Supreme Court justices have signaled some degree of openness to the theory.” [FIGHT BACK]( Friend, we know we can’t trust the conservatives on the Supreme Court! Most of their recent decisions have been disastrous, and their decisions on redistricting in particular have been downright erratic. That’s why we’re not putting our eggs in that basket. Instead, we’re continuing to carry out our multi-pronged strategy to secure fair maps, which includes: ➞ Preventing the GOP from stacking state courts like they stacked the Supreme Court. ➞ Helping elect Democrats who support fair-map efforts. ➞ Holding Republicans accountable for gerrymandering. ➞ Responding to court decisions. ➞ And keeping up the fight for fair redistricting in the states.
