Louisiana Redistricting: Supreme Court Procrastinates, Minority Voting Rights on Hold Indefinitely
By Vixen Vile, Published 3 hours ago
The Supreme Court, in a move that shocks absolutely nobody with half a brain, has chosen to punt the Louisiana redistricting fiasco into the next term. It's like watching a bunch of octogenarians playing an endless game of "pass the buck" with the Constitution.
Instead of making a decision that could shake the foundations of gerrymandering, they've decided to give themselves more time to think. Probably too busy pondering over whether a hot dog is a sandwich to focus on something as trivial as civil rights.
The voters, meanwhile, are left in limbo, their rights shuffled into a deck of judicial delays. It's as if the court is saying, "We'll get around to your rights when we damn well please." The people's pleas for fair representation are nothing more than background noise to these robed procrastinators.
In true Supreme Court fashion, they've managed to turn a legal issue into a national game of "who can ignore voter suppression the longest." So, congratulations, Louisiana, your redistricting woes are now a blockbuster sequel, coming to a courtroom near you whenever these justices finally pull their heads out of their robes.
