The Arizona Republic
reports that the Arizona Supreme Court reinstated the chair of the
state’s Independent Redistricting Commission Colleen Mathis, delivering a
rebuke to Gov. Jan Brewer (R) and the Republican-controlled state
Senate who ousted Mathis earlier this month.
Laurie Roberts:
“Personally, I think the redistricting commission got the congressional
maps wrong… Having said that, the remedy isn’t to go all banana
republic(an) on us and try to toss the chairman on some trumped up
charges. This not only makes the Republicans look desperate, it puts
their oself interest on display in a most unflattering fashion. The
Republicans should just do what every red-blooded, God fearing, flag
waving American does: Sue. Challenge the maps, once they’re finalized,
in court. And quit whining.”
