House GOP members filed a lawsuit asking the state Supreme Court to declare the Democratic mapping effort an unconstitutional political gerrymandering. The suit claims the boundaries were drawn to give Democrats supermajorities in the state House and Senate. The Republicans argue the legislative boundaries enacted into state law in 2021 violate the state constitution’s mandate that elections be “free and equal.”
