قضت المحكمة العليا في ولاية فرجينيا بأن خارطة الدوائر الانتخابية للكونغرس التي تم رسمها حديثاً والتي يحبذها الديمقراطيون غير دستورية، مما أدى إلى إلغاء نتائج انتخابات خاصة وإبقاء الولاية على حدود دوائرها السابقة.
خلص القرار الصادر يوم الجمعة بأغلبية 4 أصوات مقابل 3 إلى أن عملية تعديل دستور الولاية انتهكت شرط الانتخابات الفاصلة بموجب المادة الثانية عشرة، القسم الأول. وذكرت المحكمة أن النهج الذي اتبعته الولاية قوض نزاهة التصويت في الاستفتاء وجعله باطلاً.

The Supreme Court of Virginia ruled Friday that a voter-approved redistricting plan violated state constitutional procedures. The 4-3 decision nullifies the April referendum and keeps the state's existing congressional maps in place. Democrats had sought the change to gain a stronger edge ahead of the 2026 midterms.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 on April 29 that Louisiana's congressional map, which included a second majority-Black district, constitutes an unconstitutional racial gerrymander. Justice Samuel Alito wrote for the majority that Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act requires proof of intentional discrimination, not just disparate impact. The decision, in Louisiana v. Callais, limits race-based redistricting and prompts new maps in several states.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6–3 on April 29, 2026, in Louisiana v. Callais that Louisiana’s congressional map (SB8) was an unconstitutional racial gerrymander, concluding the Voting Rights Act did not require the state to draw an additional majority-Black district. Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga., called the ruling “a massive and devastating blow,” warning it could accelerate redistricting fights across Southern states ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
Louisiana Republicans approved a new congressional map that eliminates one of the state's two majority-Black House districts. The change follows a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that narrowed the Voting Rights Act.

The US Supreme Court issued a 6-3 decision in Callais v. Louisiana, significantly weakening Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act following October 2025 oral arguments.
