NY GOP Wins Latest Election Map Challenge

Republicans challenging the drawing of New York's new congressional district boundaries have won another round in court.

A panel of appellate judges ruled in a 3 to 2 vote that the map drawn by Democrats in the state legislature is unconstitutional.

Legislative leaders say they will appeal the ruling to the state's highest court - the Court of Appeals.

It could hear the case as soon as next week.
