Nice. A judge in Maryland struck theirs down just last Friday too. :laughing0301:

Judge rejects New York’s redistricting plan, orders new maps​


"NEW YORK (AP) — A lower-court judge declared New York’s new congressional and legislative district maps unconstitutional Thursday and ordered the legislature to quickly redraw them, a process that could delay the state’s fast-approaching party primaries.

Judge Patrick McAllister said in his surprise ruling that the districts were illegally gerrymandered to benefit Democrats."

Pretty funny, isn't it? No matter which party is in power, they cannot resist the temptation to cut district lines in their favor, often so obviously, a judge takes one look and says "You gotta be fkn kidding me. Nice try. Go try it again."
 
The state is going to appeal, though, so there is a good chance the current maps will stay in play for this election cycle.
