Lawmakers decline to redraw maps

Lawyers defending the GOP-drawn redistricting plan said lawmakers will not attempt to remake the map to address issues raised in a lawsuit challenging its constitutionality.

The decision means that the case will go to trial in federal court Thursday morning.

A three-judge panel overseeing the suit earlier today had asked the parties to try redrawing the maps to address issues in the suit.
