A three-judge district court on Tuesday rejected North Carolina lawmakers’ request for a stay on a ruling that found the state’s congressional map was unconstitutional.
Judges James Wynn, William Osteen and W. Earl Britt of the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina ruled that the lawmakers had failed to meet the “heavy burden” required to stay the order.
They found that the lawmakers' "motion does not dispute this court’s unanimous conclusions" that the map had resulted in partisan gerrymandering and must be redrawn.
