Court strikes down Alabama congressional map for diluting the power of Black voters

[Guno צְבִי]

Federal judges on Tuesday struck down a new congressional map created by Alabama Republicans that includes only one majority-Black district, defying a Supreme Court order.

“We are disturbed by the evidence that the State delayed remedial proceedings but ultimately did not even nurture the ambition to provide the required remedy,” the judges wrote in a 217-page filing Tuesday. “And we are struck by the extraordinary circumstance we face.”

“We are not aware of any other case in which a state legislature — faced with a federal court order declaring that its electoral plan unlawfully dilutes minority votes and requiring a plan that provides an additional opportunity district — responded with a plan that the state concedes does not provide that district,” they added.

There is just no way, when 27% of the populace of a State is Black, and there is only one designated Black District drawn up in the whole state.

It is the only reason why now, there is only one Black US Congress person to represent that state!

What the Racist Republican State legislators are trying to do, is create more safe districts for their RACIST State and Federal representatives.

Deplorable and against federal law.

If you do not want your party to be called racist, end the systemic racism in your state!
