Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan warned that the Supreme Court’s decision in the Texas redistricting case will lead to a “violation of the Constitution” of voter rights.
The Supreme Court issued an unsigned decision in favor of freezing the initial 2-1 U.S. federal court ruling against Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s proposed redistricting map, a stay that could help Republicans pick up five additional U.S. House seats in next year’s midterms.
“This Court’s stay ensures that many Texas citizens, for no good reason, will be placed in electoral districts because of their race,” Kagan wrote in her dissent. “And that result, as this Court has pronounced year in and year out, is a violation of the Constitution.”
You find it hard to believe that MAGA operatives and aligned politicians would do something stupid and counterproductive?
You can go double check, but I’m pretty sure with this go around, they opted to crack their previously packed districts, and they used 2024 Trump voter data to do so.
