redistricting

The Kentucky Democratic Party has appealed a recent court ruling that upheld Republican-drawn political maps for the state House of Representatives and Congress.

Republican lawmakers have overridden Gov. Beshear’s vetoes of redistricting maps and the Ky. Democratic Party is suing to block the plans.

Though Beshear’s vetoes will likely be overridden by the legislature, the maps could be ripe for a legal challenge once they become law.

Republicans will have an even easier time getting elected in Kentucky under new political maps passed by lawmakers on Saturday.

Redistricting maps released by the state Senate would make the state’s congressional and legislative districts friendlier for Republicans.

The body voted on cuts to the mayor’s federal relief spending plan, new political boundaries and police leadership’s union contract.

Eastern Kentucky's population decline has implications for how the area will look after political redistricting next year.

Kentucky grew more diverse in the past decade as white population declined in 2020, according to data released by the Census Bureau on Aug 12.

Rural Kentucky saw a sharp decline in population over the last ten years, according to new data released by the U.S. Census Bureau.

COVID-19 and interference by Trump officials delayed the release of new census demographic data used to redraw voting districts, forcing some state and local elections to be pushed back.
