US Supreme Court ruling guts minority vote protections, could redraw political map by 2028

The Supreme Court significantly weakened a key Civil Rights-era law by striking down a majority Black congressional district in Louisiana. This 6-3 ruling, authored by Justice Alito, found the district an unconstitutional gerrymander, potentially enabling more Republican-friendly redistricting. The decision's full impact may be felt in 2028, as most filing deadlines for this year have passed.
