Framing Analysis
The Roberts Court reinstated Alabama's seven-district congressional map on Tuesday night, allowing its use in November elections despite a unanimous three-judge panel ruling that found intentional racial discrimination by the state legislature. Black voters make up 27 percent of Alabama's population, and the map provides one district where they can elect their preferred candidate. The decision follows the Louisiana v. Callais precedent and overrides the lower court's order that included two Trump appointees.
