Pennsylvania GOP slams election-map 'power grab' as 'judicial activism,' will challenge


“This map constitutes a new standard for judicial activism,” Pennsylvania Republican Party Chairman Val DiGiorgio said in a statement. “Hope Republicans in the Great State of Pennsylvania challenge the new ‘pushed’ Congressional Map, all the way to the Supreme Court, if necessary. “The Pennsylvania Supreme Court, by acting as judge, executive and legislature has trampled on the concept of separation of powers and violated the Pennsylvania and U.S. Constitution,” he said. The new map reunifies Democratic-heavy cities that had been split by Republican map drawers six years ago. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court had a Monday deadline to come up with a redistricting map.
