The New York State judge found that a U.S.
House district in New York City currently represented by a Republican violates the state's constitution by diluting the collective power of Black and Latino voters.
The judge is ordering New York's Independent Redistricting Commission to come up with a new congressional map by February 6th.
The new map is likely to include an additional Democratic-friendly district that could help Democrats push back against Republican gerrymandering efforts sparked by President Trump.
Legal fights are still playing out over other new congressional maps.
California's Republican Party is asking the U.S.
Supreme Court to block that state's new map, which voters approved last year as a Democratic counter-response to the new Republican-friendly map in Texas.

How many U.S.
House seats and Electoral College votes each state gets for a decade is determined using a census count.
The 14th Amendment requires that count to include the, quote, whole number of persons in each state.
But the Republican-controlled House Oversight Committee has advanced a bill that calls for excluding people living in the states without U.S.
citizenship, such as green card holders.
During the last Congress, a similar bill passed the Republican-controlled House but never got a Senate vote.
The current bill is making its way to a possible House floor vote months after President Trump put out a social media call for a, quote, new census that excludes people living in the states without legal status.
That kind of change would be unprecedented in U.S.
history and likely be challenged in court.
