Description
A federal trial, which is set to resume this week, could determine whether Governor Ron DeSantis’s redrawn congressional maps are unconstitutional.
The lawsuit, filed by several civil rights groups, says the maps, drawn up last year and used in the mid-term elections, helped Republicans gain four seats in the state legislature.
“I cannot stress enough the importance of the outcome of the court challenges,” said House Minority Leader Fentrice Driskell, speaking at Saturday’s Hillsborough NAACP Awards Dinner.
