Rucho today concluding that a new congressional map in North Carolina should be implemented after the 2018 elections. With 67 days to go before the 2018 general election and a primary already conducted, Common Cause argued that new districts would generate election administration challenges that would cause confusion and lower voter turnout. The trial court ruled on Monday that North Carolina\u2019s congressional map is an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander and is determining the appropriate remedy. The North Carolina General Assembly is likely to appeal the court\u2019s ruling striking down the map directly to the U.S. Supreme Court, which could hear the case in the next term.","featured_image":"","press_type":236,"authors":["{\"site_id\":\"1\",\"post_type\":\"person\",\"post_id\":7855}","{\"site_id\":\"1\",\"post_type\":\"person\",\"post_id\":7872}"],"related_issues":[103,2066],"related_work":false,"location":46},"sidebar":{"helper_enable_sidebar":false,"helper_media_contact":{"heading":"Media Contact","manually_enter_person":false,"person":null,"name":"","role":"","phone":"","email":""},"helper_links_downloads":{"heading":"Links & Downloads","links":null}},"page_layout":[{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_wysiwyg","_acfe_flexible_toggle":null,"component_wysiwyg":{"content":"Common Cause, zusammen mit der League of Women Voters of North Carolina, reichte eine <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/PLDG-Common-Cause-v.-Rucho-August-31-2018-Brief-re-Remedies.pdf\">knapp<\/a> In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/de\/redistricting-litigation\/gemeinsame-sache-gegen-rucho\/\"><em>Common Cause gegen Rucho<\/em><\/a> heute kam Common Cause zu dem Schluss, dass nach den Wahlen 2018 eine neue Kongresskarte in North Carolina eingef\u00fchrt werden sollte. 67 Tage vor den allgemeinen Wahlen 2018 und einer bereits durchgef\u00fchrten Vorwahl argumentierte Common Cause, dass neue Wahlkreise zu Herausforderungen f\u00fcr die Wahlverwaltung f\u00fchren w\u00fcrden, die zu Verwirrung und geringerer Wahlbeteiligung f\u00fchren w\u00fcrden. Das Gericht erster Instanz <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/de\/press-release\/gemeinsame-sache-siegt-in-parteipolitischer-klage-wegen-wahlkreismanipulation\/\">entschied am Montag<\/a> that North Carolina\u2019s congressional map is an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander and is determining the appropriate remedy. The North Carolina General Assembly is likely to appeal the court\u2019s ruling striking down the map directly to the U.S. Supreme Court, which could hear the case in the next term.\r\n\r\nIn its brief Friday, Common Cause asked the court to assign a special master to create a new congressional map after the 2018 election.\r\n\r\n\u201cUnfortunately, the General Assembly\u2019s decision to draw a biased and gerrymandered map in 2016 allowed them to run out the clock and force North Carolinians to vote in unconstitutional districts one more time,\u201d said Bob Phillips, Common Cause North Carolina executive director. \u201cAlthough justice will be delayed one more election cycle, we will keep up the fight for fair representation here in North Carolina and across the country when this case heads to the U.S. Supreme Court.\u201d\r\n\r\nOn August 27, the three-judge federal district court panel again struck down North Carolina\u2019s U.S. House map as an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander in the consolidated case of <em>Common Cause gegen Rucho<\/em> Und <em>Liga der W\u00e4hlerinnen von North Carolina gegen Rucho<\/em>Das Gericht stellte Verst\u00f6\u00dfe gegen den Ersten und Vierzehnten Zusatzartikel sowie Artikel I, Abschnitte 2 und 4 der Verfassung fest. Die Prozessrichter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/CC_LWV_v_Rucho_MemorandumOpinion_01.09.18.pdf\">bereits im Januar wurden die Bezirke abgeschafft<\/a>, aber der Oberste Gerichtshof der USA hob die Entscheidung auf und verwies sie zur\u00fcck, um die Richter zu verpflichten, die Klagebefugnis im Lichte von <em>Gill gegen Whitford<\/em>.\r\n\r\nCommon Cause was joined in the litigation by the North Carolina Democratic Party and voters in each of the 13 gerrymandered districts. Plaintiffs are represented by Emmet J. Bondurant, Jason J. Carter, and Benjamin W. Thorpe of Bondurant, Mixson &amp; Elmore, LLP, Gregory L. Diskant, Jonah M. Knobler, Peter A.
