It will stand unless the Court of Appeals rules otherwise when it hears the case.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Huh? Lindley rightly noted that the redistricting process was \u201cflawed from the outset,\u201d referred to the tossed maps as \u201cunconstitutional\u201d and noted that NY primaries can be held as late as Aug. 24 and still pass federal muster.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Yet he\u2019s still suggesting a possible victory for the state Democratic lawmakers who rammed through these blatantly unconstitutional maps: Namely, a map drawn to lock in permanent Dem control of the state Senate. <\/p>\n<p>That is, the very lawmakers who defied the voters\u2019 will, embodied in the state Constitution, may succeed in ensuring that the voters\u2019 desires will never matter again. The party whose high-taxing, soft-on-crime policies are killing this state will become unstoppable. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/Election-2022-New-York-Political-Maps-1.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Judge Patrick McAllister\" class=\"wp-image-21850333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/Election-2022-New-York-Political-Maps-1.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/Election-2022-New-York-Political-Maps-1.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/Election-2022-New-York-Political-Maps-1.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/Election-2022-New-York-Political-Maps-1.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Judge Patrick McAllister  ruled that new congressional and legislative district maps were illegally gerrymandered to benefit Democrats.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP\/Vaughn Golden<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>McAllister correctly ruled <em>all <\/em>the maps unconstitutional.
