Twin Falls Won’t Challenge New Map

Twin Falls county commissioners have announced that they’ve decided not to file any further challenge to Idaho’s new legislative redistricting plan, though they’re not entirely happy with it. The county led an earlier challenge to the Idaho Supreme Court that overturned the previous plan submitted by the state’s citizen redistricting commission. County Prosecutor Grant Loebs said, “It’s not a good plan, but it’s an acceptable one. It’s considerably better than the previous plan that extended Twin Falls districts all the way to Chubbuck”/ Betsy Russell , Eye On Boise. More here.
