威斯康星州最高法院支持使用由三名法官组成的小组来审查国会地图中的党派操纵主张。 Wisconsin Supreme Court upholds use of three-judge panels to review partisan gerrymandering claims in congressional maps.

威斯康辛州最高法院已下令由两名三人组成的合议庭审理质疑州2011年国会地图的诉讼案, The Wisconsin Supreme Court has ordered two three-judge panels to hear lawsuits challenging the state’s 2011 congressional maps, upholding a law requiring such panels. 案件指称这些地图有利于共和党人,共和党人拥有八个众议院席位中的六个席位。 The cases allege the maps favor Republicans, who hold six of eight House seats. 在一项5-2裁决中,保守派法官Brian Hagedorn加入自由多数,支持小组的要求,但批评了法官的挑选。 In a 5-2 decision, conservative Justice Brian Hagedorn joined the liberal majority, which upheld the panel requirement but criticized judge selection. 保守派法官持异议,以党派偏见为由。 Conservative justices dissented, citing partisan bias. 法院没有对地图是否符合宪法作出裁决。 The court did not rule on the maps’ constitutionality. 这一决定可能会影响2026年的众议院选举,因为民主党的目标是使两个共和党控制的区具有竞争力。 The decision could affect the 2026 House elections as Democrats aim to make two Republican-held districts competitive.
