The Supreme Court handed down a victory for the Republican Party on Monday, striking down a lower court's ruling that had blocked Texas' plans for redrawing its congressional districts.
The court hung its order on reasoning from a previous ruling in Abbott v. League of United Latin American Citizens, but did not elaborate. Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented from the decision.
Well, by many accounts Texas followed Texas law, and federal laws while doing the mapping. Doesn't make it right, just makes it legal, as SCOTUS agreed.
Virginia did not follow our own laws to do ours, yet I am doubtful the VASC will vacate the referendum results.
