(Worthy News) – The Supreme Court on Monday denied efforts by Republicans in North Carolina and Pennsylvania to block state court-ordered congressional maps favoring Democrats.
Courts in both states recently drew the new maps after finding that their state legislatures failed to adopt plans that met constitutional and statutory requirements. In response, GOP-aligned groups filed lawsuits asking the high court to intervene.
Justices on Monday issued separate orders allowing the maps selected by each state’s Supreme Court to go into effect for the 2022 elections. Republicans in both states had requested that the Supreme Court block lower court rulings that ordered states to redraw the map plans, which those courts said gave the GOP an unfair advantage.
