Eleventh Circuit Won’t Rehear Georgia Case on At-large Elections for Public Service Commissioner

On July 10, the Eleventh Circuit refused to rehear Rose v Raffensperger, the case over whether Georgia’s at-large elections for Public Service Commission violate the federal Voting Rights Act. The vote was 8-3, with one abstention. The three judges who wanted to rehear the case wrote at length, and one of the judges who didn’t want to rehear the case also wrote.

As a result, there will continue to be at-large elections for this partisan office, instead of district elections. If the lawsuit had succeeded, the state would have had five districts, each one electing a commissioner. Here is the decision.
