Das Gericht gab der Legislative zwei Wochen Zeit, um neue Wahlkreise f\u00fcr das Repr\u00e4sentantenhaus und den Senat von North Carolina festzulegen. Dabei wurden strenge, \u00fcberparteiliche Kriterien angewendet und die Wahlkreise waren \u00f6ffentlich.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>Erkl\u00e4rung von Bob Phillips, Gesch\u00e4ftsf\u00fchrer von Common Cause NC:<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u201cThis is a historic victory for the people of North Carolina. The court has made clear that partisan gerrymandering violates our state\u2019s constitution and is unacceptable. Thanks to the court\u2019s landmark decision, politicians in Raleigh will no longer be able to rig our elections through partisan gerrymandering.\r\n\r\nWhat\u2019s crucial now is ensuring that the legislature fully complies with the court\u2019s order and draws new legislative districts in a timely fashion, with full transparency and robust public input, absolutely free from gerrymandering.\u201d\r\n\r\n<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>Erkl\u00e4rung von Karen Hobert Flynn, Pr\u00e4sidentin von Common Cause:<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u201cA narrow majority on the United States Supreme Court turned their backs on the voters in North Carolina in June refusing to curb the blatant partisan gerrymander, but today the state\u2019s own court stood up for the rights of those voters under the state constitution. This victory joins a growing list of victories in the fight to end gerrymandering nationwide. The battles do not end here though. We will watchdog this process to ensure that the legislature draws fair maps and the process is transparent. In other states the fight will go on in state courts, in legislatures, and through ballot initiatives to ensure every voter across this country has a voice at the polls. Common Cause will be relentless in continuing our fight to end partisan gerrymandering once and for all.\u201d\r\n\r\nTo view the ruling, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/north-carolina\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2019\/09\/Common-Cause-v.-Lewis-trial-court-decision-9.3.19.pdf\">klicken Sie hier<\/a>.\r\n\r\nTo learn more about <em>Common Cause gegen Lewis<\/em>, <a href=\"https:\/\/nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcommoncause.org%2Fnorth-carolina%2Fresource%2Fcommon-cause-v-lewis%2F&amp;data=02%7C01%7CBWarner%40commoncause.org%7C77c6d7ed658540ee6f3c08d730abfb5f%7Cdb39e4b4de324cf9b66e9d02d8172178%7C0%7C0%7C637031387533022407&amp;sdata=JaoComIfA9531wIn22LmvgOq%2B%2B50jiNmkWIFMOGrBXI%3D&amp;reserved=0\">klicken Sie hier<\/a>."}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_add_component","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_add_component":null},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_work","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_work":{"heading":"Work","manually_curate":false,"work":null}}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
