An alarming question from Justice Neil Gorsuch reveals that the Voting Rights Act’s days may be numbered.

Wrote up some thoughts on the #SCOTUS oral argument in Louisiana v. Callais yesterday in @slate.com:

"The Supreme Court should not take from states the broad leeway they currently have to draw maps that remedy Voting Rights Act violations." Read @davidhgans.bsky.social's reaction to this morning's oral argument at #SCOTUS:

Arizona opinion: Minor paperwork errors shouldn’t cost anyone the right to vote As this year’s elections draw closer, courts should reject efforts by state officials, in Arizona and elsewhere, to undermine voting rights enshrined by the Fifteenth Amendment and the Civil Rights
