Progressives should be glad they lost the Supreme Court case
Charles Lane argues that the Supreme Court ruling nonjusticiable partisan gerrymandering transfers power away from federal courts, avoiding a national redistricting body. He notes risks of unprincipled judging and emphasizes state referendums in Colorado Missouri Utah and measures in Ohio Michigan to curb partisanship after the 2020 Census. The piece frames the Court’s stance as a relief from court overreach and warns against federal court entanglement in electoral maps.
