Supreme Court Reverses Mississippi Redistricting Ruling, Sends Case Back for Review
TL;DR Summary
The U.S. Supreme Court reversed a lower court’s finding that Mississippi lawmakers diluted Black voting power in the state’s legislative redistricting and sent the case back for further arguments in light of a recent shift in Voting Rights Act protections; Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented. The ruling follows a May 2025 federal panel decision and comes as Mississippi prepares new districts, with last year’s special elections having produced a few Democratic gains.
