The Supreme Court's Impending Ruling on the Voting Rights Act
The Supreme Court's upcoming decision on Louisiana v. Callais is expected to have disastrous consequences for Black voters and Democrats.
The case revolves around Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act and its ability to prevent white people from overrepresenting themselves in Congress.
- The Supreme Court heard oral arguments, which seemed to be a formality, as the outcome appears to have been predetermined.
- The six Republican justices are likely to declare the Voting Rights Act ineffective, allowing the dilution of Black voting rights through racist gerrymandering.
The outcome in this case was decided long before the lawyers arrived at the courthouse.
The case specifically concerns Congressional district maps in Louisiana, which has six districts.
