    Media outrage over Supreme Court’s Voting Rights Act decision collides with reality

    The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in Louisiana v. Callais that race-based gerrymandering to comply with the Voting Rights Act's § 2 is unconstitutional, emphasizing that race should not dictate electoral district boundaries. Justice Samuel Alito's majority opinion reaffirmed existing legal standards without overturning prior cases, while Justice Elena Kagan dissented. The decision aligns with precedents like Cooper v. Harris (2017) and Allen v. Milligan (2023), which also restricted race-based redistricting.
