The Legislature Draws Another Senate Map

TAMPA (2012-3-27) -

The Florida Legislature is sending a revised Senate redistricting map back to the state Supreme Court.

The House on Tuesday gave the map final approval.

The Florida Supreme court rejected the first Senate map, saying it "was rife with objective indicators of improper intent" that violated the new Fair Districts standards approved by voters.

Political consultant and author of saintpetersblog.com, Peter Schorsch, has been watching the senate redraw it maps. He told WUSF's Craig Kopp that it doesn't look like the Senate has completely followed the Supreme Court's map suggestions.

It would seem that there are

It would seem that there are always different ways that people will think the districting maps should go and they are all based on politics and nothing more. At some point there needs to be a good conclusion that benefits the people.

    Politics plays a planning part in everything, no matter what it is, these days but when the state's Supreme Court gets involved then they need to listen.
