SCOTUS takes up redistricting

The Supreme Court takes up Texas redistricting to determine whether they should grant certiorari to hear the case.

The case is captioned Travis County, Texas, et al. v. Rick Perry, Governor of Texas, et al.. Will there be a hearing? My guess would be no, but who knows? The Supreme Court seems to issue a high-profile redistricting opinion every ten years when reapportionment occurs. This will be John Roberts first crack at redistricting cases, so if he thinks a change is somehow necessary then we will soon find out if SCOTUS grants cert.
