NH Supreme Court Appoints Special Master If Needed


New Hampshire Supreme Court, takes over Lawsuit over Congressional Redistricting, and appoints, Nate Persily, as Special Master to draw New Congressional Maps, if needed.

The Statutory Filing period for Declarations of Congressional Candidacy runs from June 1st through June 10th, 2022, absent any Extension of that Filing period, by the Secretary of State, the Primary Election will take place on September 13th, 2022.

Accordingly, we must take certain Preliminary steps in this Case now so that, in the event that the Legislative process fails to produce a fully enacted Congressional Redistricting Plan, we will be prepared to resolve the Case in a thorough and efficient manner.

Our Invocation of Jurisdiction over this Case in no way precludes the Legislature from enacting a Redistricting Plan.

Judicial Relief becomes appropriate, only when a Legislature Fails to Reapportion according to Constitutional Requirements, after the Legislature has had an adequate opportunity to do.

We will Terminate this Proceeding, if a Congressional Reapportionment Plan is Validly enacted at any time prior to the Close of this Case.
