The decision was not surprising, because the justices are currently considering whether judges should even have a role in policing partisan gerrymandering. There were no noted dissents in the orders for either state. The Supreme Court in March heard arguments in similar cases from North Carolina, where judges found that Repub - licans had manipulated congressional maps to their advantage, and from Maryland, where Demo - cratic lawmakers redrew a district that resulted in a loss for a longtime Republican congressman.
