Arizona legislative redistricting case won’t impact 2016 election
An Arizona case before the U.S. Supreme Court this term will likely not affect the 2016 election.
The case questions the constitutionality of Arizona legislative redistricting. The lines are supposed to be drawn so each district has about the same number of people. Some state Republicans challenged the redistricting, claiming when the lines were redrawn, the Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission gave an unfair advantage to Democrats.
