    Nope!

    Wisconsin GOP currently has a super majority because of these maps. They’d happily keep their seats until they die using your easy solution.

      No you see they would also have to lose their seats and the court appoints a board to set new maps and hold a new election. Everybody who participated in blocking compliance with the court decision is prohibited from candidacy or any other position as a gov official.
