Analysis Summary
The Supreme Court's recent ruling in Louisiana v. Callais further gutted the Voting Rights Act, and Southern states are already using it to redraw maps that reduce Black voting power. The post is sarcastic commentary, but its underlying premise tracks with reporting from the Brennan Center, NYT, and the Intercept. The dissent warned that the new standard โ requiring proof of 'intentional' racial disadvantage โ is nearly impossible to meet in court. What's missing: the racial turnout gap the Court cited as 'closed' is actually growing again, according to Brennan Center data.
