Judge keeps DeSantis-backed Florida redistricting map in place as lawsuits unfold

TL;DR Summary
A Leon County judge kept Gov. Ron DeSantis’s new, GOP-friendly Florida congressional map in place while three lawsuits challenge it proceed, finding no substantial likelihood of success for the plaintiffs and delaying any switch to the 2022 map. The decision preserves the map through the 2026 elections and moves the case toward a Florida Supreme Court review in a broader national redistricting fight.
