| The Pennsylvania Supreme Court released its own congressional redistricting map this afternoon (see map below). Back in January, the Democratic-majority court ruled that the state's 18-district map in use since 2011 was unconstitutionally gerrymandered and partisan in Republican favor and ordered a new map be drawn. Legislative leaders sent a new map to Governor Tom Wolf last Monday, who in turn sent a map of his own to the court on Friday. This map created by the court will be used in... Read More |

This map takes features from Republican and Democratic submissions, while still meeting the court's orders and opinion, to provide Pennsylvanians with a fair map. While my preference would have been for the... Read More |
