Statement On Senate’s Passage of Flawed State Senate Maps

Today, following the Florida Senate’s passage of an incredibly flawed State Senate map, Florida Democratic Party spokesman Max Steele made the following statement: 

“It’s clear for all to see that the Senate Republican leadership has learned absolutely nothing from their numerous legal defeats throughout the redistricting process. Senate Democrats stood united against this fundamentally flawed map that continues to circumvent the Fair District amendments and the will of Florida voters.  

“This map is headed for the same fate as all of the other flagrantly gerrymandered maps Republicans in the legislature have produced.”
