Wisconsinites Get Fair Maps for 2024 Election

Tony Evers seated at a desk holding documents over his head surrounded by people cheering and holding signs
For the first time since 2011, Wisconsin voters will now have a fair shot at making their voice heard in state legislative elections. Governor Tony Evers has signed fair, non-gerrymandered state legislative maps into law, ensuring that Wisconsinites will have a meaningful say in legislative outcomes and a fair chance to determine who will govern them.  

In a momentous decision last December, the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that the state’s unfair maps violated a provision of the state constitution. 

This legal victory cements a massive win for democracy and gives a voice to Wisconsinites who have been silenced for far too long by gerrymandered maps deliberately designed to drown them out.

Campaign Legal Center (CLC) partnered with Law Forward, the Election Law Clinic at Harvard Law School, Stafford Rosenbaum LLP, and Arnold & Porter to file a lawsuit on behalf of 19 Wisconsin voters from across the state who have had their voices silenced by the maps.  

 

What is Gerrymandering?

The manipulation of the mapmaking process for personal gain is called gerrymandering, and gerrymandered districts hurt voters, especially Black and brown voters, by making it harder for them to elect their preferred candidates.
