If an area is predominately black that’s not impacted.
Was Memphis impacted when thet cut the district in half?
What’s impacted are the racial gerrymandered districts, some so specially to give a minority majority.
Republicans are gerrymandering them to give whites a majority WTF are you talking about.
LA had some weird map that cross diagonal across the entire state.
Just more excuse making for whites.

Haters will always hate innocent people for wicked reasons while being convinced they are justified to hate people based upon their own flawed judgment.

You aren't hated, and you aren't innocent. Drop the white victimhood because I don't care about your feelings.
 

Samuel Alito Cited Fudged Data in His Ruling Gutting Voting Rights Act​

Alito cited data provided by the Department of Justice that used faulty methodology.​

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito relied on misleading data to support his ruling decimating the Voting Rights Act, The Guardian reported Friday.

In the court’s majority opinion, Alito claimed that the kind of racial discrimination that had prompted the creation of the Voting Rights Act no longer existed.

“Black voters now participate in elections at similar rates as the rest of the electorate, even turning out at higher rates than white voters in two of the five most recent Presidential elections nationwide and in Louisiana,” Alito wrote.

He was citing a friend-of-the-court brief submitted by the Department of Justice, which relied on a statistical methodology that is not preferred by experts in determining statewide voter turnout. The brief calculated Black and white voter turnout in Louisiana as a proportion of the total population of each racial group over the age of 18. This is generally considered a suboptimal method because it includes people who can’t vote, including noncitizens and people with felony convictions.

Experts typically prefer to consider voter turnout as a proportion of the citizen voting age population, or the eligible population. Using this methodology, The Guardian determined that Black voter turnout in Louisiana only exceeded white voter turnout in the 2012 presidential election.

Using the DOJ’s data, Alito also elided the fact that the racial voter gap is actually widening. In the three most recent presidential elections since Barack Obama was on the ballot, Black voter turnout has trailed white voter turnout, according to The Guardian’s analysis. In Louisiana, the disparity grew wider between 2016, 2020, and 2024.

Kevin Morris, a researcher at the Brennan Center for Justice, said that Alito’s claim is “simply not factual,” and that the turnout gap had “exploded” over the last three years.

Michael McDonald, a leading expert on voter turnout who teaches at the University of Florida, told The Guardian that relying on this “misleading” methodology was purposeful. “If I wanted to manipulate the numbers in a way that was favorable to the government’s interest, I would be using voting age population,” McDonald said.

1) I am sure, if it was cut in half....now a black woman is likely going to win....
2) They are simply making normal distracts, not gerrymandered crazy ones based on race
3) The real issue here, as highlighted by you yesterday, isn't race, it's about your party.,...that's why you are pissed a black woman is going to win in TN, once the racial gerrymandering was ended

Are all blacks hateful and disrespectful like you? No, because I know many Christian blacks who are some of the best Christians I know.

Why on earth would someone want to get rid of the 14th Amendment? I did not see what his argument was. Lets assume they did not mean birthright citizenship. What on earth does that have to do with any argument about overturning the 14th?

Now you are tying to use the most blacks love racism tactic. You are no christian, and you are the one full of hate an disrespect.

So why are they only targeting majority blavk districts.

The real issue here is that racist like you are working to destroy black voting blocks, this administration, SC and Congress are not even hiding their racism against black folks, I am pissed a boot licker might get elected that doesn't represent the black folks in that district.

It's obvious you love racist gerrymandering, you want a republican in a district that they don't represent the folks in that district. How dumb is that.
