AZ Supreme Court Overturns Gov. Brewer's Removal Of Chairman

Arizona Supreme Court Overturns Gov. Jan Brewer's Removal Of Redistricting Chair

The Arizona Supreme Court dealt Republican Gov. Jan Brewer a blow Thursday, overturning her decision to oust the chairwoman of the state's independent redistricting commission.

The Arizona Republic reported that the court found that Brewer's removal of Colleen Coyle Mathis did not meet state constitution guidelines.

Brewer removed Mathis on Nov. 2, with the consent of the Republican-controlled Senate, for holding too many secret meetings and for drafting a map that Brewer said did not meet guidelines for compact districts and keeping together "communities of interest."

In court papers, Brewer had argued that Mathis did not use a grid format, as specified in the state constitution, for creating the districts. In addition, Brewer argued that Mathis, a registered independent from Tucson, did not disclose her husband's involvement in the campaign of a Democratic state legislator in her application for the commission.

Yet another overreach by the right wing... Wisconsin's Scott Walker is toast; Ohio's Kasich is toast; Florida's Rick Scott is toast (He and Kasich are tied with 36% approval ratings); and now Brewer goes down...

Jus' keep doin' what yer doin'......

So she is going down for trying to make someone on a commission follow state guidelines, and do the meetings in the open?

Wow....didn't know doing the right thing, out in the open, was so anti-democrat. I actually figured you'd be for open-meetings LJ.

Lady Jazzer is only interested in open meetings if they are sponsored by The Socialist Party of America.

It's actions like this, where you're trying to push buttons of other people, that make you look like a troll.

I am still waiting for you to change your name again.
May I suggest Gooch or Grundle? Because you are definately something between an A**hole and a Pri*k.

LJ,
See where the Colorado redistricting you were trumpeting was shot down?
Seems too many counties were split in 1/2. Should have known a Dem judge would not care about following the intent of the law, keeping like communities together.
