And honestly with this Supreme Court, even if the state legislatures involved said very loudly “we changed the voting districts for the express purpose of limiting black representation” they would find some convoluted way of allowing it.







Well… without Mitchell McConnell ignoring the Constitution to get two extra appointees for Trump 1, we might be at a 4-5 decision the other way…
