Judge Willett, joined by Judges Barksdale and Duncan, in Jackson v. Tarrant County:

Here, Tarrant County chose to redraw the precinct lines used to elect its County Commissioners—and to do so mid-cycle. The Challengers, a group of voters reassigned from one district to another, contend that the County Commissioners Court redrew the lines to harm racial minorities. They further argue that, even if partisanship rather than race drove the decision, the County’s staggered elections justify our intervention despite the general rule against policing partisan maps. We hold that the facts do not support the Challengers’ first argument, and the law does not support their second.
