🚨BREAKING: Today, in a 6-3 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that South Carolina’s congressional map is not a racial gerrymander, reversing a lower court decision that struck down the map. South Carolina will not have a fair map for 2024 and this decision will hamper the ability of voters to fight unfair maps in the future.
The majority opinion authored by Justice Samuel Alito and joined by the court’s conservative majority holds that the state’s 2022 congressional map is not unconstitutionally racially gerrymandered and changes the standards required to bring racial gerrymandering claims.
This decision stems from a lawsuit filed by the South Carolina State Conference of the NAACP and a voter that alleged that the state’s congressional map drawn with 2020 census data is an unconstitutional racial gerrymander that intentionally discriminates against Black voters.
