Washington — On Tuesday a federal district court temporarily blocked Alabama from using the congressional map adopted by state lawmakers in 2023, finding the plan intentionally discriminated against Black voters and violated the 14th Amendment; the judges ordered the state to use a court-selected map featuring two majority-Black districts that was used in the 2024 elections. Montgomery and state officials have signaled they will appeal and the governor scheduled special primaries in affected districts for August; the injunction follows a recent Supreme Court decision that altered Voting Rights Act interpretations and returned the case to the district court this week, creating immediate scheduling and legal uncertainty for candidates, election administrators, and voting-rights groups.

Who Impacted

阿拉巴马州共和党领导的立法机构和 2023 年选区图的支持者在法律和政治上遭遇挫折,因为禁令阻止了他们在即将举行的选举中使用的由立法机构绘制的选区,并且很可能会引发上诉和日程安排中断。
