New districts in Pennsylvania

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court threw out the state’s congressional map Monday, ruling that Republican-drawn districts “clearly, plainly and palpably” violate the state’s constitution and ordering that the map be redrawn in the next three weeks.

The court ruled that a new map must be submitted to Gov. Tom Wolf, a Democrat, by February 9 — and then Wolf has until February 15 to accept it. If those deadlines are missed, the court said, it will draft a new map itself, with input from the parties.
