Georgia Republicans decline to redraw electoral maps during special session.
Georgia Republican legislative leaders rejected Governor Brian Kemp's request to redraw congressional and legislative districts during a special session. Speaker Jon Burns cited insufficient time for public input and pending litigation following the Supreme Court's Louisiana v. Callais ruling. The decision means no redistricting will occur before the 2028 election cycle.
