Washington (CNN)The Supreme Court has denied a request from Pennsylvania Republicans to block new congressional maps that could tilt several key races in Democrats' favor from being used in the midterm elections.

The court issued one sentence to reject the request. There were no noted dissents.
=========================================================
Pennsylvania's gerrymandered assembly map is voted down by SCOTUS. Dems should pick up 3-5 seats in midterms due to this.

Holy ****, that's brutal. I've never seen a court ruling that short.
Brutal? That's hilarious.

No, it is basically boilerplate.


The application for stay presented to Justice Alito and by him referred to the Court is denied.
