Pa. Supreme Court Justice Gives Interview About Ongoing Redistricting Case

This [corrected link] is behind a subscription wall, but it is very unusual for a judge to comment about an ongoing case like this.  A few quotes from Justice Baer: ““It takes a week or so to write a majority opinion on any big case, and it will take a week or so here.” “I did not expect this maelstrom,” he said. “I don’t think any of us did. But in 40 years since the constitution established this procedure, this is the first the court has voted to not rubberstamp the commission’s work. And, you know, the constitution was not set up to rubberstamp things.”
