Here are some recent updates.

• Wisconsin will have fair legislative maps in time for the 2024 general election after having some of the most gerrymandered districts in the country for more than a decade, thanks to legislation signed by Gov. Tony Evers (D).

• The U.S. Supreme Court left in place a decision striking down Washington's state legislative map for violating the Voting Rights Act by diluting Latino voting power. A lower court will oversee the process of redrawing fair districts for the 2024 elections.

  • In a separate case challenging Washington's legislative map, the Court voided a previous decision dismissing a case that argued the districts are racially gerrymandered. A lower court was ordered to issue a new judgment.

• Louisiana's Republican secretary of state and attorney general appealed a decision striking down Louisiana’s legislative districts to the notoriously conservative 5th U.S.  Circuit Court of Appeals. State officials are arguing that voters cannot sue to enforce Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.

• The Democratic National Committee moved to defend Arizona's 2023 Elections Procedural Manual from two conservative lawsuits, including one from the Republican National Committee.

• A federal appeals court heard arguments in a critical lawsuit that could potentially impact thousands of mail-in ballots in Pennsylvania ahead of the 2024 election.

• The Kansas Supreme Court also heard oral argument in a lawsuit challenging three provisions of a 2021 voter suppression law. The law limits ballot collection, restricts advocacy organizations from helping voters and imposes a signature verification requirement.

• The Supreme Court won't review Kentucky's process that arbitrarily dictates which individuals with a previous felony conviction will regain the right to vote — keeping the scheme in place.

Here’s what’s coming up tomorrow.

• There will be a hearing in a federal lawsuit brought by a conservative group challenging a new Minnesota law that seeks to combat election misinformation, voter intimidation and harassment.  

• The Supreme Court will release opinions at 10 a.m. EST — we are looking out for a decision in a case challenging South Carolina’s congressional map as well as a ruling in the Colorado case seeking to disqualify former President Donald Trump from the ballot.
