ATLANTA โ The Republican-controlled General Assembly passed new legislative district lines Friday over Democratsโ objections that they donโt comply with a federal court order that found maps lawmakers drew in 2021 violate the Voting Rights Act.
House lawmakers passed a new House map 101-77, voting along party lines. The state Senate followed suit, adopting a new Senate map 32-23 in a nearly party-line vote. The only Republican who voted against the Senate map, Sen. Mike Dugan, R-Carrollton, said he didnโt like either the GOP map or an alternative presented by Democrats.
