Proposed Alabama map rejects Supreme Court-mandated second Black-majority district
Alabama Republicans tasked by the U.S. Supreme Court with redrawing the state’s congressional map are so far rejecting the court’s order to create a second majority-Black district in the state.   While Alabama’s population is 27 percent Black, only one out of the state’s seven districts is majority-Black.  In a 5-4 decision in June, the Supreme Court affirmed a three-judge panel’s ruling that Alabama’s current map likely violates the Voting Rights Act, taking away from the voice of Black voters.  The group of voters who sued and won before the Supreme Court proposed a second district where Black residents are 50.5 percent of the population, according to The Associated Press.
