New York has an explicit constitutional prohibition on partisan gerrymandering. The Democrats violated that prohibition. They did it knowingly, they did it willingly, they did it joyfully. And the court today struck them down, this is a victory for the people of the state, and it's a victory for competitive and fair elections in New York state.
