The consultants didn’t include a recommendation of which Dem proposal they thought was superior.
The Dem governor had vowed to veto the maps when Republicans quickly pushed them through last week. The state Supreme Court is poised to pick new lines unless the guv and lawmakers could reach a deal.

The guv’s office said the appointment is effective Tuesday, and Taylor is resigning from the state Senate today.
Dem Gov. Tony Evers in his sixth State of the State address announced plans to make contraception easier to obtain for those on BadgerCare, demanded GOP lawmakers come up with a plan to preserve the state’s child care industry and vowed to veto any attempts to restrict abortion access.
According to prepared remarks the guv’s office released today, Evers will lay out three challenges to addressing the state’s workforce challenges, including addressing child care. His list also includes expanding paid family medical leave, a proposal Republicans rejected in the 2023-25 state budget, and investing in public education “at every level.”
GOP state Rep. Amanda Nedweski, co-author of legislation that would ask voters whether Wisconsin should ban abortion after 14 weeks, said the bill would give voters a chance to say whether state law should be stricter than the 20-week ban currently in place.

Assembly Majority Leader Tyler August blasted Rep. Janel Brandtjen as a grifter for repeatedly trying to introduce a resolution to impeach Wisconsin Election Administrator Meagan Wolfe during Tuesday’s floor session.
The petition, filed yesterday, argued a foundation of the lines now in place was the court’s 2021 decision to take a “least change approach” to the maps that Republican lawmakers drew a decade earlier. Now that the new liberal majority has thrown out that standard, the brief argues, there’s no justification to keep in place congressional lines based upon the same principle.
Gov. Tony Evers, who hasn’t said whether he will seek a third term in 2026, raised money at a slower clip last year than he did over the same period four years earlier.
