Gerrymandering Nc News Today

North Carolina’s top legislative Democrats are praising a redistricting ruling by the state Supreme Court that overturned congressional and General Assembly districts as illegal partisan gerrymanders. But Republican legislative leaders were cautious Monday about disclosing what they'll do next.

A three-judge panel will soon hear a case challenging North Carolina’s legislative and congressional maps, according to court filings released Monday afternoon.

North Carolina lawmakers voted on new maps for the U.S. House and the state General Assembly in 2021. Changes were made to account for new population figures from the 2020 census, and North Carolina picked up a 14th U.S. House seat.
