    Breaking news: A 3-judge panel struck down North Carolina's state legislative districts as unlawful partisan gerrymanders.

        3-judge panel suggests North Carolina Republicans misled federal court about timeline for drawing state legislative districts in 2017. The court says mapmaker was basically done in June -- lawmakers didn't pass criteria until August.pic.twitter.com/aiplQLyTQW

        "Voters are not freely choosing their representatives. Rather, representatives are choosing their voters. It is not the will of the people that is fairly ascertained through extreme partisan gerrymandering. Rather, it is the will of the map drawers that prevails," the court says
