The latest: Trial began on the state House districts on December 12. On January 3, the court issued a state House plan, focused on minimizing population deviation, and drawing districts to allow Native Americans an effective opportunity to elect candidates of choice under the Voting Rights Act. The court found no need, under the totality of circumstances, to draw maps specifically protecting Hispanic voters under the Voting Rights Act.
The decision was appealed to the state Supreme Court, which reversed on February 10. The state Supreme Court asked the trial court to reconsider the extent to which mildly larger population deviations would satisfy other state redistricting criteria, to reconsider the partisan impact and incumbent pairings of a court-ordered plan, and to recognize a district protecting Hispanic voters in the Clovis area under the Voting Rights Act. On February 27, the trial court issued a new state House plan.
