Supreme Court Reinstates Louisiana Congressional Map with Second Majority-Black District for 2024 Election
May 15, 2024, 09:38 PM
The US Supreme Court has reinstated a Louisiana congressional map that includes a second majority-Black district for the 2024 election. This decision overturns a lower court ruling that had declared the map an unconstitutional racial gerrymander. The ruling, which came with a 6-3 vote along ideological lines, allows the map to be used in the upcoming election, potentially benefiting Democrats and Black voters. The three liberal justices publicly dissented, with Justice Jackson expressing concerns about the expansion of the Purcell principle. The decision, which includes an emergency stay, has significant implications for the November election and the control of the US House of Representatives.
