re: SCOTUS rules on Callais

The problem is how the minority population is spread out.
A second district is going to have a wild spread shape to pick up enough minority voters.
This has primacy over districts being racially representative, at least up to the point of gerrymandering them. A state can create multiple minority districts, but the more they have to gerrymander them the more likely they are to get tossed due to Callais. So if a state has multiple minority districts it's going to be more due to their population patterns allowing for those districts without gerrymandering.

Probably bigger in terms of the future of the country.
Agreed, without a doubt when we take into account the potential repercussions and reverberations.
Repercussions for the left, long term, this really demolishes their entire foundation of power on a federal level, in federal elections ... that have been in place since 1965.
The next question is: when? In other words, will States be pressed to address claims before the upcoming mid-terms or will allowances be made to delay redistricting to be completed by 2028 elections?

Not unless its based on race, but if Districts are made line fingers, as in Va. it could be called a violation, down the road when someone challenges, but in Calif. they have enough libs throughout the state, they do not have to draw crazy districts like Va. and Ill.
BUT, the 2030 Census will, IMHO, not count all these illegals, if the VP wins in 2028.

Jackson is claiming, "the consequences are going to be grave ... minority citizens are going to be cracked out of the process."
I'm not familiar with the term. What does "cracked out of the process" mean?

No one is taking our right to vote. WTF is she talking about?

It's not a white term. Remember, in 'hood lingo a 'cracker' is a white person. So, I guess, it means minorities will be taken out of the picture by whitey. Can't take the hood out of the broad!

Sorry for the question, but I do not follow this type of prediction. You talking shite, or is this a realistic number?

Looks like if only Kagan, Sotomayor and Jackson dissented
Jackson was 100% dissenting regardless. She's so dumb.
Sotomayor was about an 85% chance to dissent regardless.

And the USA Today online headline for this story?
“Supreme Court sides against Black voters in blow to landmark civil rights law”
And no, I’m not joking.

Future generations are going to think it's absolutely insane that Sec. 2 was ever allowed in the first place

You don't think it's realistic?
How many do you think is realistic?
What do you think is the best and worst possible outcome for the reps?
What's your prediction of the most likely outcome?

Potential 24 seat swing in our beloved South alone.
It's definitely a historic decision.
