El Supremo de EE.UU. dinamita la Ley del Derecho al Voto y abre la puerta al gerrymandering

El Tribunal Supremo de Estados Unidos ha declarado inconstitucional el diseño del segundo distrito de mayoría afroamericana de Luisiana, completando la demolición de la Ley del Derecho al Voto de 1965. La decisión, anunciada a finales de abril en lugar de junio, se interpreta como un movimiento para influir en las elecciones legislativas de noviembre. Los republicanos ya están aprovechando el fallo para rediseñar mapas electorales en Alabama, Tennessee y Florida, mientras los demócratas advierten que se trata de ‘Jim Crow con nuevos ropajes’.

The Supreme Court's Voting Rights Act Decision Is an Affront to Math and History

The Supreme Court's decision in Louisiana v. Callais struck down Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, eliminating safeguards against racist gerrymandering. Louisiana, a state that is approximately 30% Black, currently has two majority-Black districts out of six (33%). The ruling will likely reduce this to one district (17%), drastically underrepresenting Black voters. The author argues this decision defies both historical context and mathematical fairness, representing a conservative backlash against civil rights progress.
