Wisconsin Supreme Court orders federal panels to review partisan gerrymandering lawsuits over congressional maps.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court has ordered two three-judge federal panels to review lawsuits challenging the state’s congressional maps, which plaintiffs say illegally favor Republicans.
The 2011 maps, which have given Republicans six of eight congressional seats, are under scrutiny for partisan gerrymandering.
The court upheld a 2011 law requiring such cases be heard first by panels, a move criticized by conservatives as politically biased.
The panels, composed of judges from five counties, include several aligned with liberal Justice Susan Crawford.
The Supreme Court did not rule on the maps’ constitutionality, only on procedure.
The cases remain pending, with potential changes to district lines before the 2026 elections.
