Wisconsin GOP OKs redistricting plans while Dems can’t agree

Associated Press  

MADISON, Wis. — The Republican-controlled Wisconsin Legislature on Thursday gave final approval to the GOP’s redistricting plans, after the maps proposed by a nonpartisan commission were lambasted by several Democrats. Democrats and other opponents to the GOP maps want Republicans to consider alternate proposals, including ones drawn by the commission. The proposed maps would largely keep those legislative districts in safe Republican control and make a western Wisconsin congressional district more favorable for the GOP. Democrats want federal courts to draw the maps, as was done the past three times Wisconsin was under divided control.
