Why didn’t New York pass another Hochulmander?

[SilverStar]

It likely wouldn't survive a court challenge, Republicans signaled they wouldn't challenge this one, and I think NY Dems feel as if 2024 will be a return to normal and 2022 was a bit of a fluke there.

Also, Democrats are a bit more principled when it comes to redistricting usually. There are some shameless examples like Illinois or the OG Hochulmander, but it's really Republicans who are far worse.

It would survive,the Court is 4-3 Hack.
NY Democrats are stupid.
And even if they wanted a fair map they should've just kept the current one.

Sorry but no. New Mexico, Oregon, New Jersey and Nevada were all democratic gerrymanders. Maryland tried one it was just struck down by the courts. Where democrats had full control in 2022 they were extremely aggressive. This was completely shocking

It would have been in 2022. Less so 2023/24. Evers signed his own maps in WI despite them being more favorable for Republicans than other options. Ohio reached "deals" on everything too.

Ohio did not.  Democrats strategically withdrew their lawsuit when a pro-Republican gerrymandering majority took over the State Supreme Court.  There is a Democratic-backed Michigan-style IRC to redraw congressional and legislative maps prior to the 2026 elections.  If anything, the fight in Ohio significantly escalated post-2022

They did for State Legislatures
