NDRC Statement on Legal Challenge Against Wisconsin’s Gerrymandered Congressional Map

Washington, D.C. — Today, Marina Jenkins, Executive Director of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC), released the following statement on Bothfeld v. WEC, a legal challenge filed by Wisconsin voters in the Wisconsin Supreme Court against the state’s gerrymandered congressional map: 

“Wisconsinites are rightly fed up with being forced to vote on an egregiously gerrymandered congressional map that has not accurately reflected the competitive nature of their purple state for over a decade. They want and deserve a fair map. This legal challenge is a step toward achieving a more representative democracy for the Badger State and finally putting an end to the shameful legacy of the Scott Walker and Robin Vos gerrymandering era.”
