Unfortunately, the High Court decided that political gerrymandering is not protected by the Federal Constitution.
We took the case into Federal court, and the lower Federal courts ruled in our favor and ruled that the State legislature engaged in partisan gerrymandering and that it was a violation of the Federal Constitution.
