New Texas district map to be used for 2012 elections

I was reading The Daily Texan and found this article about a new Texas district map that will be used for the upcoming election in November. On Wednesday the nineteenth, the United States Supreme Court approved a temporary district map after ruling the original map unfairly grouped minority populations to minimize their influence. This map will only be used for the 2012 elections. State Rep. Trey Martinez Fischer, D-San Antonio said "the federal court's interim map is not perfect, but the time before the November 6th election does not allow for another redrawing." Hopefully, this map will work until another one can be drawn up. I thought this article was a great follow-up to the article that was discussed in class for one of the class presentations.
