The Supreme Court seems closely divided over a challenge to Louisiana’s congressional map, which added a second Black majority district
The Supreme Court appears divided in a case challenging Louisiana's congressional map, which added a second Black majority district. Conservative justices may vote to reject the map, potentially hindering Voting Rights Act redistricting lawsuits. The case, involving race and politics in redistricting, sees an alliance between Louisiana's Republican government and civil rights groups. The dispute, ongoing for three years, centers on a majority Black district stretching across the state. The court is considering whether race was the primary factor in drawing the new map.
