Georgia Republican redistricting: First time all three maps precleared on initial attempt
When the U.S. Department of Justice announced Friday that it was approving Georgia's new House, Senate and Congressional district maps, it was the first time ever that all three Georgia maps had been "pre-cleared" on the first try.
