New election map for Wisconsin

[MajorRewrite]

New map legislation passed by the state reps and the governor has agreed to sign it. A win for fair elections in a state that had a severely gerrymandered election map!

This is far more surprising than it should be.

This is what happens when people vote.

This is far too surprising than it should be.

The Republicans passed it because they were afraid the state Supreme Court would pick a map that was worse for them than this one.

By the way, if you want to stay up-to-date on the fight for fair elections, I highly recommend Democracy Docket.

It’s enlightening.

It’s nice that the conspiracy nuts and right wingers aren’t complaining about this.

That's because it's over their heads.

can't seem to locate the Louisiana thread about their gerrymandered mapping so putting this here for now:

The Supreme Court restored a congressional voting map in Louisiana on Wednesday that includes an additional majority-Black district, handing a victory to African American voters and Democrats less than six months before the November election.

The order was in response to emergency appeals filed after a federal three-judge panel in the state threw out the recently redrawn map last month, ruling that it was an unconstitutional racial gerrymander.
