Judge rules DeSantis congressional map violates Florida Constitution
Quick Glance: Court declares DeSantis' redistricting map in Florida unconstitutional
  • A redistricting plan supported by Governor Ron DeSantis in Florida violates the state's constitution and cannot be used for future US congressional elections.

  • The plan diminishes the ability of Black voters in North Florida to choose a representative of their choice, according to a judge's ruling.

  • Circuit Judge J. Lee Marsh has sent the plan back to the Florida Legislature, instructing lawmakers to draw a new congressional map that complies with the Florida Constitution.

  • The decision is the latest in a series of rulings that deem new congressional maps in Southern states as concerning due to the reduction of Black voting power.
