"Federal Court Reinstates Unconstitutional SC Congressional Map for 2024 Elections"

TL;DR Summary
A federal court ruled that South Carolina can use its existing congressional map for this year's election, despite it being deemed unconstitutional last year for illegally splitting neighborhoods and exiling Black voters to benefit a White GOP incumbent. The Supreme Court has yet to rule on the case, and with the primary election approaching, the judges allowed the state to keep the map for practical reasons. Critics argue that this decision undermines democracy and perpetuates voter suppression.
