Movimento representa um revés para o partido do presidente Donald Trump em sua tentativa de manter o controle da Câmara nas eleições de novembro

Even judges appointed by President Trump think Alabama Republicans’ map goes too far in discriminating against Black voters.

The three-judge district court panel ordered Alabama to use a congressional map with two majority-Black districts in the upcoming midterm elections.

The decision marks a big win for Democrats after the Supreme Court eviscerated the Voting Rights Act in Louisiana v. Callais.

The ruling blocks Alabama from eliminating one of two majority-Black districts, a setback for GOP efforts to oust a Democratic incumbent.

Alabama is expected to appeal the ruling on the map, which would eliminate one of the state’s two majority-Black districts.

Ein US-Bundesgericht verhindert einen neuen Wahlkreiszuschnitt in Alabama. Es gäbe dann nur noch einen Bezirk mit schwarzer Mehrheit – das sei diskriminierend.
