BELL COUNTY, Texas (KXXV) — Bell County Commissioner Louie Minor filed a supplemental complaint against Governor Greg Abbott, challenging the new congressional maps.
Commissioner Minor filed the complaint on Saturday and calls the redistricting effort unconstitutional.
"The Legislature and Governor Abbott dismantled districts that they contend were drawn blind to race because someone researched their racial composition after the fact and ordered the elimination of any multiracial majority districts that happened to have arisen from that race- blind process. This is egregious, unconstitutional conduct that must be swiftly enjoined. These districts must never be allowed to govern Texas’s elections.”
