Supreme Court ruling weakens a key tool of the Voting Rights Act



The Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down Louisiana's second majority Black congressional district in a decision that could open the door for Republican-led states to eliminate Black and Latino electoral districts that tend to favor Democrats and affect the balance of power in Congress.

In a 6-3 ruling, the court's conservative majority found that the district, represented by Democrat Cleo Fields, relied too heavily on race. Chief Justice John Roberts had described the district as a "snake" that stretches more than 200 miles (320 kilometers) to link parts of the Shreveport, Alexandria, Lafayette and Baton Rouge areas.

The Rev. Al Sharpton, president of the National Action Network, called the decision a "bullet in the heart of the voting rights movement."

Non racially gerrymandered districts may not be not be implemented before the midterms.

If the majority of African-Americans voted Republican this would have been overturned by a liberal SCOTUS forty years ago.
