Redistricting Challenge
Plaintiffs lose bid for temporary restraining order over Senate District 10 map.
A federal court has denied a request by a group of Texas Democrats seeking to temporarily delay the state’s March 1 primary over what they claim are discriminatory redistricting maps.
On Monday, a three-judge panel sided with the state, denying a motion to postpone the primary elections while the case is being decided.
State Sen. Beverly Powell (D–Burleson) is among dozens of Democrats and allied organizations challenging the newly redrawn boundaries of state Senate District 10 in North Texas, which Powell represents.
Early voting in the March 1 primary starts February 14.
