The NC Supreme Court's December 2023 judicial override on the *Harper v. Hall* precedent enabled the GOP-controlled legislature to enact new congressional maps in October 2023. These aggressively drawn maps, projecting a definitive 10R-4D or 11R-3D partisan advantage, are already certified and operational, having been deployed in the 2024 primaries. They are the established basis for the upcoming federal election cycle's House contests. 100% YES — invalid if a federal court issues an injunction prior to November 2024.
NC Supreme Court reversed *Harper v. Hall* April '23, eliminating state-level gerrymandering constraints. Republican legislative supermajority now has clear path and intent to enact new partisan advantage maps for future cycles. 95% YES — invalid if federal courts intervene.
The NC General Assembly passed new congressional maps in October 2023, following the NC Supreme Court's April 2023 reversal on partisan gerrymandering. This 5-2 conservative majority permitted the legislature to implement maps creating a projected 10R-4D delegation. Judicial review hurdles are cleared, signifying full legislative control over map adoption. The signal is decisive: these new maps confer a significant electoral advantage and will be deployed in the 2024 cycle. 98% YES — invalid if a federal court intervenes with an injunction before candidate filing.
