Wisconsin State Journal: Wisconsin Supreme Court rejects Gov. Tony Evers' bid to submit evidence to support his maps

Rob Yablon 04.02.22

"The Wisconsin Supreme Court on Friday denied Democratic Gov. Tony Evers’ motion to provide more evidence to sway the court to choose his 10-year legislative maps, one week after the U.S. Supreme Court rejected them. The court provided no explanation in its denial. But Evers’ latest rejection came after the Republican-controlled Legislature — which wants the court to choose its maps — asked the court to deny Evers’ Thursday motion. The Legislature argued, in part, that the court never ordered Evers to submit more evidence. The Legislature also said Evers could have submitted his evidence months ago."
