Judge Orders Revised Congressional Map

August 1, 2014

By the News Service of Florida 

Leon County Circuit Judge Terry Lewis on Friday ordered the Legislature to submit a revised map of congressional districts by Aug. 15 and required the Secretary of State and elections supervisors to submit a proposed schedule for a special election. Lewis ruled in July that a congressional map approved by lawmakers in 2012 was unconstitutional. The News Service will have a full report later Friday.
