Louisiana Senate approves redrawn U.S. House map that would eliminate Black-majority district

TL;DR Summary
Louisiana's Senate advanced a revised U.S. House map after a Supreme Court ruling forced redrawing, proposing to eliminate a Black-majority district and cluster Black voters into a New Orleans-area district, while Republican chances would be boosted elsewhere. The plan would move House primaries to November under an open primary system with a top-two runoff if no candidate wins a majority, and the map still needs House approval amid ongoing litigation.
