A federal court is going to give Republicans a chance to argue that the state's 30 legislative districts should be redrawn for the 2014 election.

The Arizona Legislature will see a lot of fresh faces when its regular session begins in January.

An attorney for Republican interests argued Wednesday that maps drawn just last year for the state's 30 legislative districts are illegal and should be scrapped.

A judge on Tuesday threw out a bid by some Republicans to void the congressional lines drawn by the Independent Redistricting Commission, at least for the time being.

Some big names in Arizona legislative politics face contested races in the Aug. 28 primary election, with redistricting fallout expanding the normal array of intraparty rivalries resulting from ideology and ambition.

Members of the Independent Redistricting Commission want a federal judge to rule that state lawmakers are wrong in saying only they get to draw lines for congressional districts.

PHOENIX (AP) — A three-judge federal court panel has scheduled an Oct. 31 hearing in Phoenix on a lawsuit challenging Arizona's new map of legislative districts.

Our Republicans don’t need to be in legislative session to assault us. No, all they need is a law and our money to attack us. Which is what they’re up to right now.

State lawmakers want federal judges to strip the Independent Redistricting Commission of its voter-approved power to draw the lines for congressional races.

A federal court will not upset the lines drawn for the state’s 30 legislative districts, at least not this year.
