Redistricting in Wisconsin

  • The Wisconsin Supreme Court adopted Democratic Gov. Tony Evers’ proposed congressional lines as the state’s new map.
  • It keeps Wisconsin’s eight congressional districts largely intact and likely maintains the Republican advantage in the House delegation.
  • In the 4-3 majority opinion, Wisconsin Justice Brian Hagedorn wrote that Evers’ map came closest to the “least change” directive the court said it would strive to adopt when it took over the map-drawing process.
  • The court got involved after Evers vetoed the map the Republican-controlled state legislature passed last year.
