Because Democrats demand that a few Democrat precincts be bundled in districts with large Republican precincts, so that the post election ballot harvesting can erase those Republican districts and flip and steal the elections.
SCOTUS is set to hear arguments in Louisiana v. Callais, challenging race-based districts under the Voting Rights Act (VRA), potentially outlawing them amid claims of racial gerrymandering.
Today: VRA Section 2 mandates majority-minority districts to prevent vote dilution, creating ~30 such congressional seats, often Democratic-leaning.
If ended: Maps redrawn without race as factor, possibly flipping 10-15 blue seats to red, boosting GOP; critics warn of reduced minority representation, while supporters hail color-blind equality.
