So they admitted they did it...but accuse the judges of being partisan. They are a special kind of stupid.
Why? There is no federal law against gerrymandering along political lines, and likely not one in the state. They aren't wrong, this is untested waters and it will be interested to see how this plays out. I mean, I can see some constitutional arguments to be made, but they aren't strong where the law stands right now.
