Title: GOP leaders in Pennsylvania appeal to Supreme Court on new congressional lines
Post by: Free Vulcan on June 22, 2018, 05:08:08 am

Pennsylvania GOP leaders are calling on the Supreme Court to overturn a state court ruling that declared the state's congressional map an improper gerrymander, scuttling its congressional districts earlier this year in favor of Democrats.

State House Speaker Mike Turzai and Senate President Pro Tempore, the top Republican lawmakers in the state legislature, filed their appeal Thursday afternoon, marking the latest attempt to overturn the state court's decision after the Supreme Court denied two emergency requests to intervene earlier this year.

The PA GOP could ruin a wet dream. They're worthless.
