Alabama urges Supreme Court to approve congressional map for midterm elections

Republicans in Alabama have requested the U.S. Supreme Court to reinstate a previously rejected congressional election map, arguing that a recent ruling has invalidated the lower court’s decision that deemed the map racially discriminatory. This map, which consolidates most Black voters into a single district, was struck down in 2023 for diminishing Black political power. The push for the map’s approval comes as Alabama prepares for the 2026 midterm elections, despite ongoing legal challenges from civil rights groups.
