Yesterday

after the PA Supreme Court ruled the the state's maps were not in accordance with our state constitution and eventually imposed their own maps when Gov Wolf and the R legislature couldn't agree on new maps.

FTR, Alito is the justice who oversees the 3rd District.

The VA supreme Court ruled on a similar state constitution issue which was the definition of election day. I wasn't surprised SCOTUS rejected the Dem appeal.
