Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards (D), on Tuesday, called a Special Legislative Session to Redraw Louisiana’s Congressional Map, after a Map adopted by the Republican-dominated Legislature was Blocked by a Federal Judge in Baton Rouge.
Edwards’ call for a Six-day Session starting June 15th, came as Secretary of State Kyle Ardoin (R), the State’s Top Election Official, joined Legislative Leaders in asking U.S. District Judge Shelly Dick, to Delay her Order while they Appeal.
The Fifth Circuit has issued a Temporary Stay, of the Louisiana's District Court Opinion, in Robinson v. Ardoin.
This development is not surprising. The Question is whether the Plaintiffs will seek Supreme Court Review, if the Fifth Circuit Reverses the District Court’s Opinion, which at this point seems more probable than not.
