Redistricting Appeal Thrown Out

Redistricting Appeal Thrown Out
Denver, CO - On Wednesday, July 27, 2005 federal court threw out the final challenge to Colorado’s congressional redistricting map that was completed in 2002.

Republicans have long contested the Democratic backed map, which created the 7th Congressional District. Congressman Bob Beauprez currently holds the 7th Congressional District, but it is a seat Democrats are looking to win in 2006.

"Democrats are pleased with yesterday’s opinion by the federal courts," said Pat Waak, Chair of the Colorado Democratic Party. "We knew in 2002 and we know now that all legal action was taken to ensure the maps were drawn up with fairness."
