Utah Legislature Challenges New Congressional Map

Utahs new congressional map, drawn by the League of Women Voters and Mormon Women for Ethical Government, could give Democrats an extra seat. The Utah Legislature plans to appeal, as Senate President Stuart Adams calls it the most partisan and gerrymandered map. Governor Spencer Cox will delay the filing deadline with a special session, as the legislature previously approved a map rejected by Judge Dianna Gibson for favoring Republicans. A crowded primary is expected in Utahs new First Congressional District, with a former Democratic representative aiming to return to Washington. The Daily News Now! - Every city. Every story.
