The Supreme Court did clear the way for Alabama to eliminate a majority-Black congressional district weeks before the 2026 primary, overturning lower court rulings that had blocked the map on discrimination grounds — and simultaneously intervened in Louisiana's election maps during the same window. The core claim is accurate: the Court applied different reasoning to similar situations involving voting rights cases in different states. What's missing is that the Court's majority characterized the Alabama intervention as a narrow procedural matter (not weighing the underlying discrimination claims), while critics see this as selective application of its 'too close to election' principle depending on which side benefits.
