Case issues:
- Standing: Do Common Cause and the League of Women Voters of North Carolina (the plaintiffs) have constitutional standing to make these partisan gerrymandering challenges?
- Justiciability: Are the plaintiffs’ partisan gerrymandering claims able to be heard by the Court?
- Merits: If plaintiffs have standing and their claims are justiciable, is North Carolina’s 2016 congressional map an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander?
