The Supreme Court already took the Pennsylvania case. The Court heard arguments in December. From the tone of the questioning, it doesn't sound like the Democrats will win, but you never know until the Court releases its opinion.

The artciel you link has this comment: "Maybe the way to go is to just stay hands off these things," Justice Sandra Day O'Connor said early in the argument. This is a common-sense approach that will kill the Democrats' hopes. The Republican redistricting has been no more partisan that the gerrymanders of every census cycle. The USSC would be insane to open that Pandora's box, as it would be impossible to determine 'fairness' in a political sense.
