Blow to The Fair Maps Grant from Rauner Administration

A final blow to the Rauner administration today from the Illinois Supreme Court as the court denied a final request to consider the question about how legislative maps are drawn and if voters should have a say in the process.
 
Earlier this summer the independent maps push was ruled unconstitutional by the court.
 
After the decision the court was asked to rehear the arguments and they ruled 4-3 not to do so.
 
The Fair Maps coalition had more than half a million signatures to get it on the fall ballot and Governor Rauner has pushed for redistricting reform since his election bid.
