Federal Judge Approves Map with Additional Majority-Minority District in Georgia, But Also Hands Georgia Legislature a Gerrymandering Victory
A Georgia racial gerrymandering case was finalized December 28th, approving a new map which included another majority-minority Congressional district. The map puts Georgia in compliance with the Voting Rights Act Section 2. But the Georgia legislature further gerrymandered other districts, including the district of a current Black congresswoman.
