@marcelias Hi Marc. Unusual constellation of justices in majority and dissent. What accounts for the dissenters’ preference for the Supreme Court to have delayed getting involved?
@GiddingsMJ@heidilifeldman@marcelias from what I've read, it's bc the majority thinks Percell requires every map should stick until the next election, and they can decide the long legal battles in front of them later
This is simply remaining consistent with bad maps that screwed people over and strengthening that precedent for future map screwing. Playing the long game
The dissenters don't want to play this game... because (my rare opinion, I know) the law is not about naked politics
@jhwgh1968 this is my understanding too, but I would still like Marc’s opinion - especially as to whether he is comfortable taking this win and fighting other fights later. @GiddingsMJ@marcelias
