Why should gerrymandering continue to be illegal in Florida?

Answer:

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 on Thursday that federal judges do not have the authority to redraw election districts that are overly skewed in favor of one political party due to map manipulation known as “gerrymandering.”

The decision will have an impact on several states, including North Carolina and Maryland where partisans brought the legal challenges. But in Florida? The effects are more limited.

That’s because unlike some other states, the Florida Constitution already has written rules prohibiting any redistricting maps “drawn with the intent to favor or disfavor a political party or an incumbent.”

“I don’t think it’s going to change anything,’’ said Ellen Freidin, the Miami lawyer who led the 2010 Fair Districts citizens’ initiative to add that rule to the state Constitution.

In 2012, Florida courts overturned maps drawn by the state Legislature that redrew the state Senate and congressional districts. After six years of fierce litigation, including four separate federal court challenges to the map amendments that were rejected by the court, the maps approved by the courts were adopted.

What kind of impact did Al Capone have on society?
kirill [66]
His kind of impact is that he showed that laws cannot be made that go against the will of the people.

It started with the Halstead act which banned alcohol but people wanted alcohol. So Capone and the others stepped in to do something about it.
They didn't see the illegality that they were breaking the law yet the people wanted these products and did find no harm in alcohol. So after making alcohol illegal again did the gang disappear.
