An argument can be made that an unconstitutional drawing of representative districts is within power of courts to rule on. The classic is racial gerrymandering. (BTW the NC demonkkraps on past racially gerrymandered to ensure a black lefty demonkkrap was elected to Congress). But if a court finds an unconstitutional drawing of the districts, the court should not be empowered to redraw the maps itself, nor delegate the redrawing of the maps.

Also, if I am still up to date ... plain old party gerrymandering has never been held as unconstitutional. The NC demonkkraps have a very long history of gerrymandering - more than 100 uninterrupted years worth. I hope this was pointed out in the case before the court. They came to court with dirty hands.

The issue here is not gerrymandering, it is the legislature having the obviously Constitutional authority to set rules for presidential elections.
