The New York Court of Appeals on Tuesday ordered a bipartisan commission to draft new congressional maps for the Empire State.
In 2022, the state’s Independent Redistricting Committee submitted dueling pairs of congressional district maps to the legislature, which state Democrats rejected before going on to draw their own.
That map was then struck down by Steuben County State Supreme Court Judge Patrick McAllister, who found it “was unconstitutionally drawn with political bias.”
