Some much-needed good news in this battleground state. This means that Republican drawn maps will be effective for this year's elections.

The Democrats can never admit that to include the groups they want in a district, that THEY will have to gerrymander.

Something on the order of 700k would seem to be appropriate for Madistan.

Strange sequence of rulings seemingly in favor of rational people. I still envision Lucy teeing up the football, though.

A miracle. Praise God for this ruling. Seriously. The leftists took control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court recently and it didn’t look good.

A hilarious post from the DUmp:

For the sake of my mental health..

I will be away until after the election unless trump wins and then I will never come back.
I can no longer listen to any more bullshit that comes from the destructive and ignorant ass wipes know as Republicans.
I have been here for years and I am no longer capable of keeping my hatred and disgust under wraps. It's impossible for me to go back to my nonviolent life still paying attention to the danger this country is in. I wake up every morning hoping trump is dead and that is not healthy for me.

So this is goodbye

May I suggest you put yourself out of your misery?

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.
