The court\u2064 declared that the legislature overstepped its authority by passing legislation \u200cthat went\u2063 against a voter-approved independent redistricting process. Republicans in \u2063the state legislature criticized<\/a>\u200c the court’s decision, claiming it infringed on their authority and \u2062created chaos. The ruling\u200c could impact future ballot initiatives and the legislature’s power to alter them. The\u2064 gerrymandering saga began in 2018\u200c when voters approved<\/a>\u2063 an independent commission to\u200b draw new boundaries, which\u2063 was later repealed by the legislature. The League of Women Voters of \u2063Utah \u2063filed a lawsuit against the legislature, leading \u200bto the Supreme Court decision.
