Not quite. They’re going to use the more balanced maps the Democratic governor drew up few weeks ago and which Republicans accepted as the best deal they could get under the circumstances rather than an even more Democratic-leaning one that doesn’t exist yet.
The decision not to hear the congressional challenge comes after the court in December ordered new legislative maps, saying the Republican-drawn ones were unconstitutional. The GOP-controlled Legislature, out of fear that the court would order maps even more unfavorable to Republicans, passed ones drawn by Democratic Gov. Tony Evers. He signed those into law on Feb. 19 and urged the court to take up the congressional map challenge.

You are correct. I’m late to the party today, but this is my take as well.

We didn’t gain anything, but we lost LESS than we could have. (WHAT?)

Which seems to be the way ‘republicans’ operate across this once Great Nation. :(
