Das Gremium kam im Januar zu demselben Schluss, aber der Oberste Gerichtshof der Vereinigten Staaten hob die Entscheidung im Juni dieses Jahres auf und verwies sie zur\u00fcck, nachdem er in Gill gegen Whitford<\/em>. The Justices asked the trial court panel to reexamine whether plaintiffs had standing to sue. The panel confirmed standing and the original finding of constitutional violations in today\u2019s decision. The North Carolina General Assembly is likely to appeal the decision. Appeals of three-judge panel redistricting decisions go directly to the U.S. Supreme Court, so the case could be heard there in the next year.\r\n\r\nAccording to the court\u2019s decision, \u201cwe further conclude that Gill did not call into question -- and, if anything, supported -- this Court\u2019s previous determination that Plaintiffs have standing to assert partisan gerrymandering claims.\u201d\r\n\r\n\u201cCommon Cause and our partners in this lawsuit took the fight to politicians who manipulate our democracy and we won,\u201d said Karen Hobert Flynn, Common Cause president. \u201cWe anticipate an appeal and are ready to turn legislators\u2019 brazen partisan gerrymander into a historic ruling in the Supreme Court to end the practice nationwide.\u201d\r\n\r\n\u201cAlthough North Carolina\u2019s loud and proud admission that legislators drew districts for partisan advantage is unusual, the practice is universal when politicians are in charge,\u201d said Kathay Feng, Common Cause national redistricting director. \u201cUntil we prohibit partisan gerrymandering, a true representative democracy will remain out of reach and the voices of all Americans will continue to be silent.\u201d\r\n\r\n\u201cWhile we look forward to having our landmark case now go before the highest court in the land, it\u2019s regrettable that North Carolina voters this November will be voting in congressional districts that have been found unconstitutional,\u201d said Bob Phillips, Common Cause North Carolina executive director. \u201cWe the people deserve better. It\u2019s time for state lawmakers to do their part and pass redistricting reform.\u201d\r\n\r\nCommon Cause gegen Rucho<\/em> wurde urspr\u00fcnglich konsolidiert mit Liga der W\u00e4hlerinnen von North Carolina gegen Rucho<\/em>. Im Jahr 2016 ordnete ein Bundesgericht an, dass die Generalversammlung von North Carolina die Kongresswahlkreise des Staates neu aufteilen m\u00fcsse, da es sich bei zwei Wahlkreisen um illegale rassistische Wahlkreismanipulationen handelte. Der Abgeordnete des Staates, David Lewis, gab \u00f6ffentlich bekannt, und die Gesetzgeber legten in den offiziellen Kriterien f\u00fcr die Neuaufteilung der Wahlkreise fest, dass die Beibehaltung eines republikanischen Vorsprungs von 10:3 ein Hauptziel der neuen Karte sein w\u00fcrde. Wie bereits im Januar entschieden, stellte das Gremium des Gerichts erneut fest, dass die Wahlkreise den ersten und vierzehnten Zusatzartikel sowie Artikel I, Abschnitt 2 verletzen und die den Staaten in Artikel I, Abschnitt 4 der Verfassung einger\u00e4umte Autorit\u00e4t \u00fcberschreiten.\r\n\r\nUm die Entscheidung zu lesen, klicken Sie hier<\/a>.<\/span>"}}]},"yoast_head":"\nCommon Cause Prevails in Partisan Gerrymandering Lawsuit -
