1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,000
Okay.

2
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:04,000
It does look like a problem.

3
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:05,000
Yeah.

4
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Good morning everyone.

5
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,000
I'm Matt and I'm just going to go to Marshall.

6
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,000
This is a few minutes since I've been facing there.

7
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,000
I'm going to please be sure to go check and call around the site.

8
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,000
There's a little bit of a protocol.

9
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:27,000
If you've had any comment or food, it's not allowed with an ear ear.

10
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,000
It's not put that way or anything like that.

11
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,000
The water is okay.

12
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,000
Other than that, food is right.

13
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,000
When the dust has come out.

14
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,000
So we are talking about greenhouse.

15
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,000
We're talking about food.

16
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,000
We've got one example.

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,000
There's a little bit of this.

18
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,000
Any questions?

19
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,000
Oh, this is the ear.

20
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,000
There's a little bit of this.

21
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,000

00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,440
They wouldn't have had a lot of time to do that.

00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:47,440
Thank you.

467
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:48,440
Thank you.

468
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:49,440
Thank you.

469
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:50,440
Thank you.

470
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:51,440
Thank you.

471
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:52,440
Thank you.

472
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:53,440
Thank you.

473
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:54,440
Thank you.

474
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:55,440
Thank you.

475
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:56,440
Thank you.

476
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:57,440
Thank you.

477
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:58,440
Thank you.

478
00:11:58,440 --> 00:11:59,440
Thank you.

479
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:00,440
Thank you.

480
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:01,440
Thank you.

481
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:02,440
Thank you.

482
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:03,440
Thank you.

483
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:04,440

Thank you.

486
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:07,440
Thank you.

487
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:08,440
Thank you.

488
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:10,440
All rise.

489
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,440
Harry Harry Harry.

490
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,440
The Wisconsin Supreme Court is now in session.

491
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:19,440
The honorable Chief Justice Joe Kiroshki-Pursady.

492
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,440
Your silence is in.

493
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:22,440
Good morning everybody.

494
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:31,440
Go ahead and have a seat.

495
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,440
Welcome to everybody.

496
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:41,440
I just want to go through a couple of administrative things before we start today.

497
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:46,440
Number one, Justice Dowd is having a speaker issue.

498
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:51,440
Not to get too personal.

499
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,440
So we've turned the volume up on the sound system.

500
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,440
I think it's, I hope it's loud enough.

501
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,440
You just be really mindful of that when you're at the podium and you're speaking into the

502
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:03,440
speaker.

503
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:08,160
And if we can't hear you, I might just stop you and say, please raise the volume a little

504
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:09,160
bit.

505
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,440
Or as I would say to my kids, use your inside scream.

506
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:20,800
The second thing, as it relates to timing, there's a number of you that are arguing on

507
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:25,840
this side of the table, especially, I want to make sure that everyone gets their questions

508
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:31,440
answered and that you have a chance to answer those questions without feeling unduly rushed.

509
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:38,720
So we'll use the lights as guide posts, but we won't have strict adherence to them within

510
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,920
reason.

511
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,720
Having said that, we may go over the time.

512
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:50,640
I'm going to be mindful of what time it is on the clock and take breaks.

513
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:55,800
I want to try to mitigate misery in this room as much as possible for everyone involved.

514
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,560
So if I stop you in the middle, I'm going to try to stop anyone in the middle of a point

515
00:13:59,560 --> 00:14:03,640
or an argument, but it's possible that it might stop you in the middle of your argument

516
00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:08,720
depending on where we are, I'm just letting you know that ahead of time, just because

517
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:14,720
I want to be able to try to keep it pretty close to 90 minutes.

518
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:20,320
I think that is all I have preliminarily, so the first case that we have today is Elizabeth

519
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:33,000
Bothfeld versus the Wisconsin Elections Commission, and may I please have the appearances?

520
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,760
And I believe you're appearing pro-hakviche, yes, okay.

521
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,960
Welcome to the Wisconsin State Bar for the purposes of today's hearing.

522
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:56,240
Good morning, and welcome to the Wisconsin State Bar for the purposes of today's hearing.

523
00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:06,160
Good morning, and this is what I have for timing, at least according to my sheet, is

524
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:12,760
25 minutes followed by 10, 10, 10, and then back to you for five.

525
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:24,360
All right, we are ready when you are.

526
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:25,360
Thank you, Your Honors.

527
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,680
Good morning, Madam Chief Justice, and may it please the court.

528
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:33,520
Wisconsin's congressional map was adopted based on the methodology that this court has

529
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,320
since overruled.

530
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,840
The map is therefore unlawful.

531
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:43,600
The Bothfeld plaintiff's separation of powers claim rests on three basic pillars that have

532
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,960
already been established by this court.

533
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:52,600
One, the map was adopted pursuant to a least change mandate.

534
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:58,480
This court said so in Johnson 2, where it selected the map because it quote, most complies

535
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,400
with our least change directive.

536
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:06,840
Two, least change is no longer good law.

537
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:12,280
This court said so in Clark, where it explained that least change is incompatible with the

538
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:19,400
judiciary's institutional obligations of neutrality and independence and expressly overruled

539
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:24,680
any portions of Johnson that mandate a least change approach.

540
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:30,880
And three, this court has the power to right this wrong.

541
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:36,880
Clark itself rejected virtually identical procedural obstacles and objections that

542
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:43,320
interveners advance here and confirmed that this court can and should require a lawful

543
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:48,000
replacement for an unlawful court-drawn map going forward.

544
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,920
Council, I want to take you from Johnson 2 to Johnson 1, okay?

545
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:56,000
Are you asking us to overturn Johnson 1?

546
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:01,760
I believe this court has already overruled the basis of Johnson 1, the least change map

547
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:07,840
that was the direction from Johnson 1, and it also overturned the map that was drawn pursuant

548
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:12,600
to that, I think by the logic, because it overturned the logic of the least change map,

549
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,720
we are now asking the court to finish that job and actually apply that to the ongoing

550
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:18,920
injunction that applies for congressional districts.

551
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:24,120
So some of us might think maybe Johnson 1 was only addressed in part.

552
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:29,720
Do you want to go on with that argument and tell us why you think it's already been overturned?

553
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:34,400
I mean, I think what this court did not mince any words in Clark when it said, we are here

554
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:41,400
by overruling any portion of Johnson 1, 2, or 3, that mandates a least change approach.

555
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:47,680
So there was nothing, there's nothing ambiguous about what it was doing when it talked about

556
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:53,560
wherever you find least change, whether it was mandated in Johnson 1 or adhered to in

557
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,520
Johnson 2, all of that has been overruled by this court.

558
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:02,280
So now the question is where you have just a single least change map left standing.

559
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:06,680
There's only one least change map left standing in Wisconsin.

560
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:07,680
Are we going with that map?

561
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,600
Is essentially resting on legal quicksand.

562
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,320
Let me push on that, Council.

563
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,240
So that's not what Clark said.

564
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:19,200
Clark did not say that least change could not be applied, right?

565
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:20,200
Would you agree with that?

566
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:24,640
Clark said that least change could be considered as part of traditional districting criteria,

567
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:29,720
but it could not be the mandate that overarches or drives the drawing of the map.

568
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:34,440
The court said it was overruled to the extent it was mandated as the methodology.

569
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:39,000
Did not say that least change was always an impermissible methodology.

570
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:39,640
Isn't that right?

571
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:40,600
Correct, John, I did not.

572
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:48,200
So that means that Johnson 1, that the holding in Johnson 1 is still good, that doesn't disturb

573
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:49,040
that at all.

574
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:55,000
There's nothing about Clark that overturned the use of least change as methodology.

575
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,280
Clark just doesn't control that.

576
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:02,280
It's true that this court decided it was going to adopt a different remedial program for

577
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:07,680
a new map in Clark if it ever got there, which it never did, but it didn't disturb the use

578
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,560
of it or say that that was somehow illegal.

579
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:14,480
That's a different argument you're making here today than was addressed in Clark, wouldn't

580
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:15,480
you say?

581
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:20,480
I believe that this court actually did explain why least change was not just wrong in principle

582
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,800
or policy, but wrong as a matter of law.

583
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:27,960
So let me talk a little bit about you frame your argument as a purely separation of powers

584
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,440
argument.

585
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:35,520
Would you agree that the United States Constitution gives the power to the legislature to draft

586
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,320
congressional districts?

587
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:38,320
It does.

588
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,320
It primarily gives that power to the legislative branches and to the political process, but

589
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:46,440
the political process failed this decade and has not been able to produce an inactive

590
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:47,440
map.

591
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,640
I understand that, right?

592
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:56,760
But your argument is premised on the idea that in order to vindicate the separation

593
00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:04,640
of powers, the judiciary needs to take for itself the power that has been constitutionally

594
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:09,840
given to the legislature, because when we did least change, as you acknowledge, we were

595
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:16,240
deferring to the last democratically enacted maps that were put into law, right?

596
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:21,440
So they were based on the 2011 maps, which were passed by the legislature, signed by

597
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:22,440
the governor.

598
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:23,440
They're in the statute books.

599
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:24,840
In fact, they're still there.

600
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,320
They were still enacted law.

601
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:30,880
In this court said, we're going to defer to the policy judgments of the legislature.

602
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,840
We're not going to put our own policy judgments there.

603
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,640
Which the United States Constitution says that's the legislature's prerogative to do that.

604
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:42,200
And you're saying it's a violation of the separation of powers for this court to not

605
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:46,320
take that power for itself, but to defer to the legislature?

606
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,800
That is quite a creative argument to me.

607
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:53,760
In your honor, it's only a creative in the sense that this court has already made that

608
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,320
argument in Clark.

609
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,240
So two points in response to your question, your honor.

610
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,400
One is the court did not take any redistricting power here.

611
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:07,360
The redistricting power was given, was assigned to this court because the political process

612
00:21:07,360 --> 00:21:08,360
failed.

613
00:21:08,360 --> 00:21:10,560
This court had no choice but to engage in judicial redistricting.

614
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:18,080
Your argument is that when this court deferred to the decision of the legislature, that it

615
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:25,640
violated the separation of powers, when the Constitution gives those powers to the legislature

616
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:27,480
in the first instance.

617
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,840
And your honor, my argument is that Clark has already made that holding.

618
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:35,480
So when this court, in all of this court's debate about the least changed principle and

619
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:40,200
the consideration of partisan effects, the conversation has stemmed around, has centered

620
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:46,600
on what is the judiciary's role in redistricting, vis-a-vis the other political branches.

621
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:52,120
And in Johnson One, the court specifically invoked separation of powers to justify the

622
00:21:52,120 --> 00:21:57,800
least change approach and argue that it was necessary to preserve the institutional legitimacy

623
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:58,960
of the court.

624
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:04,840
In Justice Dallas, Dallas dissent in Johnson One, the dissent also argued against least

625
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:10,800
change, again using the terms of separation of powers, saying that this court cannot start

626
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:16,400
with the prior maps and maintain judicial neutrality consistent with our role as a nonpartisan

627
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:17,720
institution.

628
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:22,560
So when Clark came in and talked about, well, now what is given, what we've now, what the

629
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:28,840
court ruled in Clark, what is the court's role in redistricting when it is, when the

630
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:33,320
task falls to it, and Clark made very clear, and if the court will allow, if I can just

631
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:38,800
quote from paragraph 71 of Clark, it speaks in the terms of separation of powers.

632
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:44,920
It bears repeating that courts can and should hold themselves to a different standard than

633
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:49,520
the legislature regarding the partisanship of remedial maps.

634
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:55,480
As a politically neutral and independent institution, we will take care to avoid selecting remedial

635
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,760
maps designed to advantage one political party over another.

636
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:07,240
Importantly, however, it is not possible to remain neutral and independent by failing

637
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:11,440
to consider partisan impact entirely.

638
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:17,280
By the very terms of Clark that I just read your honor, it was not possible for this court

639
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:24,120
to abide by the judiciary's twin duties of neutrality and independence by applying least

640
00:23:24,120 --> 00:23:29,960
change and adopting all the partisan effects of the previous map and not considering its

641
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:31,600
own role in redistricting.

642
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,760
So least change, do you think least change is always problematic?

643
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,880
So for example, let's say you weren't here challenging the congressional maps, but you

644
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:47,560
were here challenging the legislative districts that have now been recently enacted into law.

645
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:53,400
So if we applied least change to that, we would defer to the recently enacted maps that were

646
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,120
signed into law.

647
00:23:56,120 --> 00:23:59,800
When passed by the Republican legislature signed by the Democratic governor, lots of fighting,

648
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,520
obviously this court got in the middle of all that with Clark.

649
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:09,320
But your argument would, that would be unconstitutional to simply defer to the policy choices of the

650
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:14,200
legislature and signed by the governor with regard to legislative maps.

651
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:19,600
Well, our argument is that blind deference is unconstitutional and in contrary to the

652
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:20,600
principles in Clark.

653
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:24,760
In the example that your honor mentioned, where there is actually a legislative enactment

654
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,880
to consider and defer to, courts have often held in the redistricting context that you

655
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:33,640
can defer to the policy choices of the legislature to the extent they don't otherwise violate

656
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:34,640
the law.

657
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:39,040
Now here, there was no policy choice of the legislature in effect.

658
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,920
The old map had expired, everybody came into this court and agreed that it was no longer

659
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,960
operative law, and the question was, what is there left to defer to?

660
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,720
Well, that's not, the maps don't expire.

661
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:56,440
It was declared unconstitutional to the extent it was no longer reflecting proportion of

662
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,920
population, which United States mandate is required.

663
00:24:59,920 --> 00:25:03,320
The Wisconsin Constitution says nothing about congressional redistricting.

664
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,560
It's still law, it's still in the books, it didn't go away.

665
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:10,200
The only thing we were trying to do was remedy a constitutional wrong, which was simply proportional

666
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:11,280
representation.

667
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:15,040
There was no, there's no expiration date on the law.

668
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:19,960
I mean, as a matter of federal constitutional law, that map could not remain in effect going

669
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:20,960
forward.

670
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,360
There was a constitutional sunset, and every party that came into this court acknowledged

671
00:25:24,360 --> 00:25:25,360
that.

672
00:25:25,360 --> 00:25:30,600
And when this court remedied the malapportionment violation, our argument is that per the discussion

673
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:35,360
in Clark and per the holding in Clark, it ended up creating a brand new legal violation

674
00:25:35,360 --> 00:25:41,240
by really veering outside the judicial lane of neutrality and independence by adhering

675
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:45,640
to a previous legislature's policy views and failing to consider the part as an impact

676
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:46,640
of its own decision.

677
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:47,640
So, Council, I'm going to talk.

678
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:48,640
I was going to-

679
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,040
It's just to take it or instill going?

680
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,040
No, but I was going to-

681
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:54,040
Okay.

682
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:55,040
Council, I have a question.

683
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:59,080
I'm going to pull you back to Johnson One, okay?

684
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,240
And I think that there's clearly a difference of opinion as to whether or not Johnson One

685
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,440
has been overruled.

686
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:11,040
Let's assume for the sake of this argument right now that it has not.

687
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:16,840
Are you asking us then to overrule Johnson One regarding partisan gerrymandering?

688
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,280
Yes or no?

689
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:23,720
So I want to make very clear, Your Honor, that we have two claims before this court.

690
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:24,720
We know.

691
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,720
So, claimed on is the separation of powers claim, which I think we've been talking about here.

692
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:33,160
And when I talk about overruling what Clark has overruled in Johnson, it's expressly overruled

693
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,120
the least changed principle in Johnson about how to remedy it.

694
00:26:36,120 --> 00:26:37,600
Let's talk about the partisan gerrymandering claim.

695
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,960
So the question about the partisan gerrymandering claim, which is our alternative claim.

696
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:46,520
Our argument there is that there was never actually a holding in Johnson One about partisan

697
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:50,000
gerrymandering saying that it is or is not just dishable.

698
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:54,480
And that is because there was no partisan gerrymandering claim before Johnson One.

699
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:59,120
While the court does, I believe in paragraph eight of Johnson One, say that it is not a

700
00:26:59,120 --> 00:27:04,720
cognizable claim, that portion of Johnson One garnered only three votes from this court

701
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,840
and was not a majority opinion.

702
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:11,680
The only majority opinion from this court on the issue of partisan gerrymandering was

703
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:16,760
in Clark when the court specifically said that partisan gerrymandering remains an important

704
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,720
and unresolved issue of Wisconsin law.

705
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:24,680
And it specifically said it was not deciding whether or not such claims were just dishable.

706
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,920
So there is nothing, I don't believe there's anything in Johnson to overturn and to the

707
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:33,600
extent that there was, Clark has already done it by making the this court's holding clear.

708
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:42,800
All right, well, I'm looking at the congressman's brief, specifically pages 42, 43, 44.

709
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:51,520
When I look at page 43, the second full paragraph, it talks about that it's unsurprising that

710
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:56,760
nothing in this court's precedent establishes judicially manageable standards to adjudicate

711
00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,040
the plaintiffs' partisan gerrymandering claims.

712
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,480
And then some pretty compelling arguments are made.

713
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,280
Can you please respond to those?

714
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:09,080
So there's kind of two issues when it comes to partisan gerrymandering.

715
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,680
One is has this court already kind of closed the door on that?

716
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,160
Our answer to that is no.

717
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,560
This court's answer to that is no.

718
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,000
And Clark had said it was an unresolved legal issue.

719
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,920
And then the next question is, well, now that it is unresolved, how should we resolve

720
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:21,920
it?

721
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,080
Is it a legally cognizable claim that has judicially manageable standards?

722
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,000
And our answer to that is absolutely yes.

723
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:32,840
The fact that the Supreme Court, the US Supreme Court has said that it's not just dishable

724
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:37,240
under federal law does not make, undeclate that it's not just dishable under state law.

725
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:42,000
Ten other state courts have found partisan gerrymandering, just dishable, under constitutional

726
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:46,080
provisions very similar to the ones that we rely upon here in Wisconsin.

727
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:50,920
There's no reason why Wisconsin could not adopt that, any one of those models that the

728
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:55,200
other state courts have adopted to make sure that it is protecting what is in Wisconsin

729
00:28:55,200 --> 00:29:01,040
a far more robust right to democratic self-governance than is provided in the US Constitution.

730
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,880
Do those other states have the same constitutional language?

731
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:10,640
Many of them do, your honor, for instance, in states like Pennsylvania and North Carolina,

732
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:15,720
they had what we called free and equal elections clauses, which are very similar to the provisions

733
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,360
that we cite here, specifically the free government clause.

734
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:23,120
And in other states, such as New Mexico or Alaska, they rely on their state equal protection

735
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:24,120
clauses.

736
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:30,320
And here in Article 1 of the Wisconsin Constitution, we're looking at Section 1, 3, 4, and 22,

737
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:34,840
equal protection, free speech, free association, and free government provisions.

738
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:41,440
All of these provide independent and combined bases to find this fundamental principle of

739
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,080
democratic self-governance.

740
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:47,080
And all of them provide a basis to say that partisan gerrymandering is antithetical to

741
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,640
those fundamental principles.

742
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:53,440
So going back to that, then do you conceive of Article 1, Section 1 of the Wisconsin

743
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:57,520
Constitution as an equal protection provision?

744
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:58,600
I do, your honor.

745
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:03,360
I think we've been viewing the idea that the citizens are entitled to equal treatment

746
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,560
under the law and cannot be arbitrarily treated based on their viewpoint, based on their

747
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:12,720
residence, and that's how we are envisioning this claim as well, in addition to the free.

748
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,800
Do we then need to consider tiers of scrutiny?

749
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:20,800
I believe under this courts, so look, there are many ways that this court can, yes, so

750
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,520
if this court is going to conceive of this solely as an equal protection violation, then

751
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,480
you're going to have to think about what are the appropriate tiers of scrutiny.

752
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,200
But then again, but here again, there are many models for how to do this.

753
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:35,720
Justice Kagan's dissent in Rucho, which was then the same model was followed in states

754
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:40,760
like New Mexico and Alaska, where she basically provides a fundamental equal protection analysis.

755
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:46,440
Let's look at predominance when it comes to partisan vote dilution, the predominant

756
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:52,360
purpose, was that in fact the effect of the map, and is there any legislative justification

757
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:57,640
outside of sheer partisan dominance that would justify the configuration of these districts?

758
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,560
Is that the test that you're asking us to adopt?

759
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:05,720
So we are not pressing one specific test, we believe that this court has at its disposal,

760
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,320
the opportunity to look at any different, any model that it wants.

761
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:12,360
We have specifically pointed to the model from Pennsylvania, which is more of a traditional

762
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:17,800
subordination test and effects based test, but that is not the only way to map onto this

763
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:18,800
claim.

764
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:22,480
But based on the one that's in New Mexico, based on the one that's in Justice Kagan's

765
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,640
dissent, what are you recommending that we do?

766
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:30,760
What we have recommended in our papers is the test that's provided in Pennsylvania.

767
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:36,400
We think that's the most clear, it's a traditional subordination test, the extent to which traditional

768
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:40,940
districting principles have been subordinated to partisan advantage and partisan gain.

769
00:31:40,940 --> 00:31:45,600
And the court has many in Pennsylvania, outlines a number of tools that courts can use as

770
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,840
both direct and circumstantial evidence to decide whether or not, essentially, the way

771
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:55,720
the map is drawn, stacks the deck in favor of one party or another to an extreme degree,

772
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:59,880
such that the decision is essentially made before a single ballot has been cast.

773
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:08,080
So if I'm understanding that method, are you only looking at a single map, or are as

774
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:13,600
opposed to if I think about Justice Kagan's dissent in Rucho, or if she's talking about

775
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:17,560
looking at, I think she uses an example of a thousand maps, and looking at where they

776
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:24,000
are on the curve, I'm not quite understanding if you adopt the punch of, if you're asking

777
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,760
us to adopt the punch of any model, if we adopt that model, what does that look like

778
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:27,760
exactly?

779
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:32,600
Are we just looking at the one map that is in front of us, or are we comparing it to

780
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:33,600
other maps?

781
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:37,240
So absolutely your honor, so obviously there's only one map in front of the court when it

782
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:42,400
comes to what we are, how we can prove that, how somebody can prove a partisan gerrymandering

783
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,600
claim, there are many different evidentiary ways to do that.

784
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:50,960
One of those that's typically used in partisan gerrymandering claims is this, the simulations

785
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:51,960
approach, right?

786
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:57,400
The using multiple maps to show would this ever have occurred based on the political, natural

787
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:02,320
political geography of the state, or was there some undue partisan intent that really was

788
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:03,320
skewing the map?

789
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,400
Well I understand that, but if I understand the Pennsylvania model, you're looking at

790
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:12,280
the map that is created and you're saying, has it been, has the, we're, if you're rank

791
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:17,040
ordering why you, why you created the map you did, is it subordinate to the constitutional

792
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:18,600
requirements or is it not?

793
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:23,280
I'm asking, are you just looking at that one map and at those requirements as it relates

794
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:24,280
to that one map?

795
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,760
I understand that you can look at a thousand maps, I understand you can look, we could

796
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:32,080
look at more than that, right, easily today.

797
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:37,520
But I'm not, I just want to make sure I understand how you envision that process, how that process,

798
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:41,880
if we adopted it, would work in the trial court in this case.

799
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,280
So I think the way it would work following the Pennsylvania model, which by the way is

800
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,760
spelled out really chapter and verse in that opinion, is that the court would essentially

801
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:56,160
look at the traditional districting criteria, the objective political geography of the state

802
00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:01,880
and ask, to what extent do the district lines veer from the traditional districting, to

803
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:07,760
subordinate those, those traditional districting principles in service of some part as an advantage.

804
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:12,080
And the way you answer that question is by looking at evidence from computer simulation

805
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:16,720
maps, looking at statistics like the efficiency gap that shows wasted votes.

806
00:34:16,720 --> 00:34:21,160
There are a number of models at the Supreme Court in Pennsylvania recognized that are able

807
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:25,080
to provide that evidence so we know what we're looking for when we're looking at this one

808
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:26,080
map.

809
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:33,720
So I'm advocating for that instead of the intent, effects and causation test that Justice

810
00:34:33,720 --> 00:34:36,800
Kagan talked about in her Rucho descent.

811
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:41,560
So Your Honor, I don't want to overstate our advocacy for one model over another.

812
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:47,920
At this point, our number one argument is that this court can strike down this map as a matter

813
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,480
of law based on the law, it's already drafted in Clark.

814
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:55,560
But if the court decides to go down the partisan gerrymandering route, our argument there is

815
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,800
that that is actually, that is not, that is a traditional route that many states have

816
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:00,800
followed.

817
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:04,320
And this court can choose whatever it deems to be the best test that it sounds fit.

818
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:08,120
So I have suggested the Pennsylvania one, I believe that that the way that model has worked

819
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:09,880
out is very clear.

820
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:13,800
But the one that is provided by Justice Kagan's descent and has been used in states like New

821
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:19,160
Mexico is equally justiciable, is it standard, that is easily comprehended by courts and

822
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:20,840
applied by courts at all levels.

823
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:29,400
Yeah, I don't want to overstate the importance to us of figuring out which path we should

824
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,160
take in order to get this right.

825
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:38,720
So, Council, can I pull you, are you, I'm sorry, are you?

826
00:35:38,720 --> 00:35:39,720
I was just musing.

827
00:35:39,720 --> 00:35:44,840
You were just musing, okay, that's what we do periodically, you'll notice.

828
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:51,520
I would like to get back to the concept of justiciability, say that 20 times fast,

829
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:56,440
and look at our Constitution, what our Constitution says.

830
00:35:56,440 --> 00:36:03,320
And you look at Article 1, Section 1, that people are sovereign, that government has

831
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:09,600
no power except through the consent of the governed.

832
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:19,040
We are interested as a state court in looking at these maps as whether they present a constitutional

833
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:26,440
harm to these principles of self-representation, of sovereignty of the people of the state

834
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:31,360
of Wisconsin, which is some through lines, throughout our Constitution, it's a beautiful

835
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:39,080
Constitution with very rich words, and it makes very clear that the people have the power,

836
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,600
not the politicians, it is the people.

837
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:49,080
So, when we're looking at justiciability, why we are so focused on what test do we apply,

838
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:54,520
assuming it's cognizable, right, assuming this claim, and you're saying it is, because

839
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:59,520
of these provisions in our state Constitution, so we have equal protection.

840
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,600
We have inherent rights.

841
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:08,240
We have free speech, the right to assembly, this court has a role in remedying wrongs.

842
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,760
So, what else are we looking at in terms of a test?

843
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:16,520
We have, you've identified, there's these different tests out there, ten states have

844
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,040
adopted some form of these tests.

845
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:23,520
We certainly want to make sure the test is manageable.

846
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,680
We want to make sure it's neutral.

847
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:33,040
But what other guidance do you suggest this court looked to when we are measuring whether

848
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:37,160
this map presents a constitutional harm?

849
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:41,640
I believe your honor, and I appreciate exactly what you said, I agree that the Wisconsin

850
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:46,720
Constitution makes no mistake that democratic self-governance is the very foundation.

851
00:37:46,720 --> 00:37:52,760
And so, there is a wrong under with the Wisconsin Constitution that requires a remedy if the

852
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,360
court decides to go down the partisan gerrymandering approach.

853
00:37:55,360 --> 00:38:00,800
And when it comes to what the test can be, like I said, we have advocated for the Pennsylvania

854
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:05,720
approach, which we believe is actually the most straightforward and easily easy to administer,

855
00:38:05,720 --> 00:38:09,800
but I'm not trying to dissuade the court from what I think is also a straightforward

856
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:10,800
and easy to administer.

857
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:15,320
Well, let me ask you about that, because if you look at New Mexico, which I would say

858
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:23,440
has some very similar provisions on the sovereignty of the people, on the government having to

859
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:30,280
have the consent of the governed, they also apply a causation piece.

860
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:34,440
And that is because we recognize, I don't think anybody on this panel would say, the

861
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,000
state does not, that nobody would dispute.

862
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:44,640
The state has an important constitutional role in redistricting.

863
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:50,720
And so, isn't it, shouldn't it, wouldn't it be prudent of us to not just apply intent

864
00:38:50,720 --> 00:38:56,000
effects, but then to give the state the opportunity to present, if there is a legitimate interest

865
00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:00,960
that perhaps we're not thinking of, because that recognizes that the state does have important

866
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:02,800
role in redistricting.

867
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,320
I agree with that, Your Honor, and I think this court's equal protection jurisprudence

868
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,960
makes clear that the question would then be posed to the state, is there a legitimate

869
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:14,160
interest that justifies this deviation?

870
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:18,520
And I think actually under either test that this court adopts, the state would be given

871
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:24,240
that opportunity to prove that, no, no, what you're seeing from the data and from the evidence

872
00:39:24,240 --> 00:39:29,280
is not the result of partisan gamesmanship, but is actually the result of some other legitimate

873
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:30,280
criteria.

874
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:32,080
I believe that the state would have that ability.

875
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:37,080
I don't think that the, I think either of these tests are difficult for plaintiffs to

876
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:43,000
prove intentionally difficult, and, but I think ultimately manageable for the court to decide

877
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:47,360
to make sure that it's not just striking down maps willy nilly, but is actually applying

878
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,960
a chapter in verse exactly what the rules are.

879
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:57,600
I have just one more question on this issue, and that is, do we not use in judging this,

880
00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:02,680
just disability, do we not use the same data that the map makers used?

881
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,400
I mean, is that why it's quantifiable?

882
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:11,840
Because map makers are able to distill down to the household and predict what is, what

883
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:17,360
is the, not, we don't have party registration here, but what is the likely affiliation here?

884
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:23,960
And so does it make it quantifiable in this context because we have the data now that

885
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:29,680
we didn't have, our founders didn't have, even our grandfathers, did not have the data

886
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,080
that we have now to make these determinations?

887
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:37,200
I think certainly the tools that are available to courts to be able to discern what has happened.

888
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:40,640
These tools that are available to map drawers to discern, to figure out how to greet the

889
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:45,080
effects that they want are far more sophisticated, which is all the, all the more reason why

890
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:51,480
this court said in Clark that this court cannot afford to blind itself to those very true

891
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:55,000
realities that lawmakers are aware of when they are drawing maps.

892
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:59,960
When a court is drawing maps, it too needs to deal with the entire political, demographic,

893
00:40:59,960 --> 00:41:04,880
factual, census-based reality to make sure that it's drawing maps that are fair and constitutional

894
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:05,880
for Wisconsin voters.

895
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,840
So you can tell we're trying to pull you across the line here because these cases are

896
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,000
complicated, right?

897
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:16,280
And if we find them to be just dishable, we need to be advising the three judges.

898
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:17,440
That should be.

899
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:22,440
So can you clearly tell us why you think the Pennsylvania test is straightforward?

900
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:27,960
We believe the Pennsylvania test is straightforward because it does not delve into the hearts

901
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:32,080
and minds of the map drawers and deciding which map drawers are most at issue.

902
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:36,680
It looks at the actual effects of the map itself to decide whether the maps abordinates

903
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:41,000
traditional constitutional principles to partisan advantage.

904
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:42,520
Can it be explained?

905
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:46,040
Can the deviations from traditional principles be explained by anything other than sheer

906
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,760
partisan gamesmanship?

907
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:53,560
So looking, I think, at the effects test that the Pennsylvania court emphasizes is perhaps

908
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:58,840
the, I would say, you know, the most straightforward way of determining this.

909
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:02,880
But again, I don't think that the court needs to shy away from looking at intent.

910
00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,160
This is the kind of stuff that courts do all the time.

911
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:08,200
If it wanted to, probably, a more intent or causation-based approach.

912
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:09,200
Okay.

913
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:13,240
I want to take you through some procedural things here.

914
00:42:13,240 --> 00:42:17,600
So let's say we were to find your claims just dishable.

915
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:21,000
I just want to go through kind of what that looks like.

916
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:25,480
Like how do you get from there to a new map?

917
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:26,480
Thank you, Your Honor.

918
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:31,640
So I'm just going to reiterate that, you know, so option number one is to strike down the

919
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:35,600
map as a matter of law because it's already been struck down as a matter of principle.

920
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:37,280
Let's go to option number two.

921
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:42,440
Option number two is to decide that Wisconsin's Constitution bars partisan gerrymandering

922
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,760
and develop a stand, and announce a standard that says, this is-

923
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,280
And I'm going to qualify you, not just bars partisan gerrymandering, isn't there some

924
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,800
extreme partisan gerrymandering, isn't that what we're really talking about?

925
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:59,880
I mean, you set it already that it's basically taking away, it's making a decision before

926
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:02,560
the election has even begun for the people in the district.

927
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:03,560
Exactly, Your Honor.

928
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,360
I'm using the word part of the gerrymandering is a shorthand for what courts have often

929
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:11,600
referred to as an extreme partisan gerrymander that is essentially an outlier and not explainable

930
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:13,200
by any other criteria.

931
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,840
Okay, so we find that, and then what?

932
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:20,560
And I think that this court has already discussed, I think it adopts the model that it seems

933
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:25,040
to be most fit for determining what is a partisan gerrymander, and then I think it would need

934
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:30,000
to remand back to the panel for a fact-finding, because as this court has already emphasized

935
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:33,320
in Clark that it is a very fact-intensive question.

936
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:39,400
And in your view, the circuit court then has the ability to grant a clearatory judgment

937
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:43,840
as to whether or not these maps actually meet the tests that we set forth.

938
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:47,080
Absolutely, Your Honor, and of course this court can make very clear what the authority

939
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:50,920
is of the circuit court, but the whole design of this three-judge panel was essentially

940
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:55,520
to be able to do this kind of work to sit and adjudicate facts that are about redistricting

941
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:58,720
maps and make the proper judgments for Wisconsin voters going forward.

942
00:43:58,720 --> 00:44:00,200
Okay, and then what?

943
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:06,800
Let's say the circuit court says these maps are an extreme partisan gerrymander according

944
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,080
to the tests set forth, then what?

945
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:12,920
I think there's a remedial process, and that's not dissimilar to the remedial process

946
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:14,720
that this court has already laid out.

947
00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:17,840
So you foresee us doing that remedial process?

948
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:21,120
I think the district, I think the panel could do that remedial process as well.

949
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,400
I think there's a little bit of a question depending on how the appeals work.

950
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:28,600
There might be an appeal of the liability order before it gets to a remedy, but ideally

951
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:33,680
we would say that any of this should have, all of this is judicial, just dishable within

952
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,760
the panel and can all be reviewed by this court on appeal after that.

953
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:42,800
Even though that's our order, aren't we the ones that would need to overturn our injunction

954
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:47,120
and or order that discussed the previous maps?

955
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:51,200
I don't think that's exclusively the case, Your Honor, certainly on instruction from

956
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:52,200
this court.

957
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:57,400
The panel could have the authority to revisit that injunction, and ultimately our argument

958
00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:02,800
on both separation of powers and partisan gerrymandering is that the panel had the sitting

959
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:07,880
today, the panel had the job to look at this court's most recent precedent.

960
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:10,840
In our first separation of powers argument, that most recent precedent is Clark.

961
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:12,280
They had to apply Clark.

962
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:15,960
If this court were to decide that partisan gerrymandering is dishable, that would be

963
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:17,520
this most recent precedent.

964
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:21,280
So whether it's applying it to a map that was adopted by the legislature or adopted by

965
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:26,000
the court, the lower court's job is to apply this court's binding precedent.

966
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:31,040
And before we would adopt any map, the legislature would get a chance to also draw a map.

967
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:35,160
Is there purview unless they cannot do it or unless there's an unconstitutional violation

968
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:36,320
with their map, correct?

969
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:37,320
Absolutely, Your Honor.

970
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:42,800
And I want to make very clear, there is nothing, there has been nothing preventing the legislative

971
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:49,120
process from enacting a map since 2020, since 2021, the legislature can and should adopt

972
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:54,000
a map if it feels like that that's something it has the political capability to do and

973
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,320
nothing of this court is tying this hands.

974
00:45:56,320 --> 00:46:00,880
In Johnson, the court specifically said that this map shall remain in place until the

975
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:05,360
legislature adopts a new map or a court holds otherwise.

976
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,880
Until number one happens, we are asking this court to hold otherwise.

977
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:13,960
Just a quick question to kind of add the facts to your arguments.

978
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:20,160
The map that is in place is a map that Governor Evers proposed, right?

979
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:24,880
The map that is placed is a map that was, the Governor Evers proposed pursuant to the

980
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,400
least change mandate that was in Johnson 1.

981
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:33,200
So all of the participants in the Johnson litigation were limited to a single map and

982
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,880
it was, they were told in advance that it would be judged based on that single criterion.

983
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:44,320
So what about Governor Evers' map is an extreme partisan gerrymander?

984
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:50,720
So your Honor, Governor Evers' map is essentially following the dictates of this court, it is

985
00:46:50,720 --> 00:46:56,680
a least change map that is 95% identical to the 2011 map that this court cemented in

986
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,040
place pursuant to that least change mandate.

987
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:08,120
So by calling it Governor Evers' map, our position is that the 2011 map was a gerrymander

988
00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:11,800
and it was calcified in place pursuant to this court's least change mandate.

989
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:13,840
Then that's a different question.

990
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:17,960
That 2011 is almost 15 years ago, right?

991
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:19,520
So why now?

992
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:22,280
Why isn't this barred by latches?

993
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:26,720
Your Honor, for the partisan gerrymandering claim, it's not barred by latches because it's

994
00:47:26,720 --> 00:47:29,000
seeking only prospective relief.

995
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:36,320
The idea that the state of Wisconsin is prohibited from writing a wrong just because that wrong

996
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:40,880
has existed for a number of years is antithetical to the entire latches doctrine.

997
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:44,240
By that same logic, you know, Brown v. Board of Ed would have been latchesed out because

998
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:46,880
it was already sitting in decades' worth of segregation.

999
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:53,880
The different issue, but has Wisconsin ever had a map that meets the criteria that you

1000
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,000
outline today?

1001
00:47:56,000 --> 00:48:03,000
Given that partisan bodies have drawn the maps under the Constitution, since the Constitution

1002
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:08,040
that provision's been in existence, has Wisconsin ever had a partisan gerrymandered map?

1003
00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:11,600
Have we ever had a map that's good under your criteria?

1004
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:15,440
Your Honor, I've not evaluated every map, congressional map that's been adopted.

1005
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:20,320
I know many maps have been adopted by courts not pursuant to a least-change criterion.

1006
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:21,320
As we saw, I'm Jensen.

1007
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:25,160
We've seen in Prosser that the reports have said we actually do need to look at the partisan

1008
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:29,440
effects of our map to make sure that we are applying traditional districting principles.

1009
00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:32,800
So I have no reason to believe that any of those maps would be unlawful.

1010
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:37,480
We are only talking about the one map we have in place today, which was built pursuant to

1011
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,240
a least-change principle that has since been debunked.

1012
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:48,040
Council, whose intent are we looking at if we were to apply a test that had an intent

1013
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:49,040
element to it?

1014
00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:50,040
Yeah.

1015
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:53,440
It's a little tricky in this one, Your Honors, is normally you look at the map drawers'

1016
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:54,440
intent.

1017
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:58,280
And here, when it comes to the most recent intent, that intent from this court was laid

1018
00:48:58,280 --> 00:48:59,280
bare.

1019
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:06,160
The intent was to adopt the intent, the effects, and everything as possible from the 2011 map.

1020
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:11,600
So the court can look at the judicial record to know that the intent was to adopt the intent

1021
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:16,000
of 2011, and that we even have a judicial record on the 2011 maps as well.

1022
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,560
So in the baldest case, for instance, there is evidence and there is argument about what

1023
00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:21,560
exactly was that intent.

1024
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:22,560
I want to announce that.

1025
00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:23,560
Go ahead, Jessica.

1026
00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:24,560
Thank you.

1027
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:29,560
I'd like to return to the question of remedy, because it sounded to me like you were saying

1028
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:35,880
a few minutes ago that we could somehow deputize that three-judge panel to overturn

1029
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:40,280
an order by this court.

1030
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:49,560
And that seems premature to me at a minimum until there is a factual record showing a

1031
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:51,280
partisan gerrymandering.

1032
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:56,240
It seems to me premature for this court to do anything of that nature and also quite

1033
00:49:56,240 --> 00:49:59,080
unprecedented.

1034
00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:02,800
The respondents make some of those arguments in their briefs.

1035
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:09,800
So can you walk me through how it is you believe the circuit court versus this court could

1036
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:13,520
adopt a remedy of a different map than is currently in place?

1037
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:19,280
So I believe that the circuit court has the obligation to abide by this court's precedent.

1038
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:20,280
So when it comes to our separation-

1039
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:23,360
Not just precedent, but it is a judgment.

1040
00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:25,360
It is.

1041
00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:30,440
And in Johnson too, this court said that the map would stay in place until legislative

1042
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:33,200
enactment or a court says otherwise.

1043
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:36,880
Wisconsin has since adopted an entire judicial process through this three-judge panel that

1044
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:42,160
is essentially intended to adjudicate these kinds of redistricting challenges.

1045
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:47,800
If for instance we were here in 2032, and there was a three-judge panel case that was

1046
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:54,560
designed by Wisconsin law to handle redistricting matters, I don't think we would say, well

1047
00:50:54,560 --> 00:51:03,040
that three-judge court has no power to enjoin the now old 2022 map in light of new law.

1048
00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:09,040
Of course, whatever the court's authority is, it is to apply the governing law from

1049
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:11,840
this court to the judgment before it.

1050
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:17,440
So I do think that the lower court always has the, not just the authority, but the obligation

1051
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:20,720
to follow this court's precedent, which makes this an easy answer when it comes to

1052
00:51:20,720 --> 00:51:26,040
the separation of powers claim in the partisan gerrymandering context if this court's precedent

1053
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:31,920
who tells the district, tells the circuit court that partisan gerrymandering is unlawful

1054
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:37,560
and it needs to be adjudicated to make sure, to determine whether or not this challenged

1055
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:41,600
map fails under that standard, then I think the court just needs to follow, the lower

1056
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,280
court would just need to follow this court's precedent in order to do that.

1057
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:45,920
I don't think it would be acting beyond it.

1058
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:52,160
So in other words, that language in, I think it's in Johnson too, that says until a court

1059
00:51:52,160 --> 00:52:01,280
says otherwise something to that effect, you believe you interpret that language as allowing

1060
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:08,200
a lower court, a three-judge panel in the circuit court, to based on a finding of a

1061
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:14,320
constitutional violation, set those maps aside and adopt new maps.

1062
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:20,880
By some process that we'll probably ask you further about, but so that's where you find

1063
00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:28,680
that authority is in that language in Johnson too, saying that until a court otherwise decides.

1064
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:31,560
I think that language in Johnson too recognizes the authority.

1065
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:34,320
I don't think that's the sole source of the authority.

1066
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:37,800
The source of the authority is from long line of precedent starting with Cook v Cook, which

1067
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:42,600
basically says that the lower court has an ability to, has an obligation to apply the

1068
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,200
most recent binding precedent of this court.

1069
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:49,920
If the most recent binding precedent of this court is that our own injunctions can be

1070
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:54,200
reviewed according to a partisan gerrymandering standard, then the lower court has an obligation

1071
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,320
to abide by that rule and adjudicate under that rule.

1072
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,960
So that's something you're asking us to hold.

1073
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:02,640
In the alternative to our initial claim, your honor, which is that we are asking you to hold

1074
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:07,160
that this map already violates Wisconsin law as articulated in Clark, so that the lower

1075
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:10,600
court does not need to go back and make any liability determinations.

1076
00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:12,560
This court has the ability to enjoin it on its own.

1077
00:53:12,560 --> 00:53:18,320
But I think Justice Cropper is asking you a very specific question about the holding

1078
00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:21,440
and you just use language about the injunction.

1079
00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:26,240
Are you asking that to be part of our holding to be that specific?

1080
00:53:26,240 --> 00:53:30,360
Are you just set aside the separation of powers argument?

1081
00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:34,480
If you're talking about an extreme partisan gerrymandering, that that's your argument

1082
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:39,640
and that violates the Wisconsin Constitution, and if we agree with you and if that is our

1083
00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:40,640
holding.

1084
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:47,960
Do we need to say more about the injunction that is in place in this case?

1085
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:55,360
Because the or a court otherwise directs, are you saying that's us directing it here?

1086
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:58,360
Which court is otherwise directing, or is it the three-judge panel?

1087
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:01,760
I think it could be either, your honor, and specifically if this court were to determine

1088
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:08,240
that extreme partisan gerrymandering is cognizable under Wisconsin law, it could then

1089
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:13,640
remand to the lower court with instructions to evaluate this map, this injunction from

1090
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,400
this court, under those principles.

1091
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:19,360
And with that instruction, the court would have no other choice but to do that.

1092
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:24,680
Okay, so what is a little narrow as it relates to this case, I understand what you're saying.

1093
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:33,920
But what about Governor Evers' map is an extreme partisan gerrymander?

1094
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,680
I want to be careful, your honor, about calling it Governor Evers' map.

1095
00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:41,560
Governor Evers is actually advocated for a people's commission process that produced

1096
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:42,560
a different map.

1097
00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:47,240
The court accepted the map that he submitted, so you can call it what you would like today

1098
00:54:47,240 --> 00:54:50,480
I'm calling it Governor Evers' map that the court adopted.

1099
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,360
So let's start with that.

1100
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:58,760
What about that map requires this court to act because it is an extreme partisan gerrymander?

1101
00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:06,320
That map calcifies 95% in place the 2011 map that we believe is an extreme partisan gerrymander.

1102
00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:10,560
Of course on the posture that we have before this motion to dismiss, we don't have the

1103
00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:16,640
fact finding to be able to say this is the exact demonstrable evidence of that, but in

1104
00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:23,080
our complaint we allege that that map that is from 2011 and then we cemented in place

1105
00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:28,840
from this court in Johnson's to order is one of the most partisan skewed map in the country

1106
00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:31,120
under a variety of objective metrics.

1107
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:37,760
So Council, it seems to me that your separation of powers argument is putting the cart before

1108
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:40,640
the horse a bit.

1109
00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:46,480
It seems to be premised on an assumption that the maps that were adopted by this court were

1110
00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:49,440
in fact an extreme partisan gerrymander.

1111
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:55,080
Doesn't that have to be proven first before that hurdle presents itself?

1112
00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:56,080
Not at all your honor.

1113
00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:57,720
So walk me through that.

1114
00:55:57,720 --> 00:55:58,720
Absolutely.

1115
00:55:58,720 --> 00:56:04,200
The separation of powers claim does not at all rest on whether or not the previous map

1116
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:09,600
was right or wrong or an extreme partisan gerrymander or anything else.

1117
00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:17,680
The separation of powers claim, which I think is outlined in 70 and 71 of the court explains,

1118
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:25,200
when the judiciary is charged with redistricting, it needs to engage in a certain process and

1119
00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:31,320
that process cannot include blind deference to a previous map.

1120
00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:37,600
It has to include consideration of the partisan effects of its map because the court is taking

1121
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,400
ownership of its role in redistricting.

1122
00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:46,360
So this idea that the court can just kind of close its eyes and hold its nose and do

1123
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:47,920
whatever the legislature did previously.

1124
00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:52,240
Let me just interrupt a moment because it seems to me that what the court was considering

1125
00:56:52,240 --> 00:57:00,720
there was a more prophylactic concern of avoiding a constitutional violation and not

1126
00:57:00,720 --> 00:57:04,680
saying there was a constitutional violation.

1127
00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:07,040
Am I incorrect in viewing it that way?

1128
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:11,840
I mean, I think that the concern that this court expressed in Clark about least change

1129
00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:15,240
sounded in principles of separation of powers.

1130
00:57:15,240 --> 00:57:21,960
Like I said, specifically the court said, it is not possible to remain neutral and

1131
00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:26,400
independent by failing to consider partisan impact entirely.

1132
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:32,080
And by definition, that means that it was not possible for this court to remain neutral

1133
00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:37,280
independent as it was its responsibility when they're the separation of powers when it used

1134
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:38,920
that approach in Johnson.

1135
00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:45,280
So it's prophylactic in the sense that, yes, it's what should be done and it maps onto

1136
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:49,400
what is our claim for prospective relief going forward.

1137
00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:54,440
If it is not possible for the court to abide by its twin obligations of neutrality and

1138
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:59,440
independence by adopting a least change that doesn't look at partisan impact, that means

1139
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:00,720
it was not possible.

1140
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:05,440
And we are all living under that map going forward for 2026 and 2028 and 2030.

1141
00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:13,720
I'm going to follow up on a couple of questions that Justice Dalit asked you.

1142
00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:22,800
She walked you through and you laid out three steps, essentially, I guess maybe, yeah.

1143
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:29,240
Starting with, if we found the map, if we ruled that an unconstitutional, extreme gerrymanders

1144
00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:35,520
just dishable, we would adopt a map for what that means, excuse me, we would adopt a test,

1145
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:37,440
a model of maps on the brain.

1146
00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:45,000
We would adopt a model for what that meant exactly, we would remand it for fact-finding.

1147
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,000
And then the fact-finders would do what they would do and then we talked a little bit about

1148
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:54,840
remedy, which could be the fourth thing.

1149
00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:58,520
We have two cases in front of us.

1150
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:09,480
Your friends are very patiently sitting in the front row behind you.

1151
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,160
What should we do about that?

1152
00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:22,720
What if we also find that there is an anti-competitive claim that that also violates the Wisconsin

1153
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:23,720
Constitution?

1154
00:59:23,720 --> 00:59:29,800
We have three, we have two, three-judge panels.

1155
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:39,360
I assume that they are also going to come up here and say if you find that this is dishable,

1156
00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:43,720
you adopt a model, I don't want to take any of your argument away, you'll come up and

1157
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:47,000
then do this, you'll remand it back for fact-finding.

1158
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:54,840
Are we going to have two different panels, six different judges, having these hearings,

1159
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:58,320
coming up with who knows how many different maps?

1160
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:00,000
Can you help me think through-
