美国最高法院裁定路易斯安那州国会选区图违宪
Read, Watch or Listen
Washington — The U.S. Supreme Court this month in Callais v. Louisiana ruled Louisiana's 2024 congressional map unconstitutional, prompting rapid redrawing of districts across several Southern states this week. The decision, which affected two majority-Black districts that elected Black Democrats, has triggered coordinated state-level map changes while primaries and early voting are already underway. The immediate consequences include thousands of Louisiana voters having cast early ballots that may no longer match revised districts and state officials facing logistical challenges; Alabama's primaries are a week away and Tennessee races were already upended. Sabato's Crystal Ball updated seat projections Wednesday, and state legislatures, courts and election administrators are expected to resolve maps and potential litigation ahead of upcoming elections.
