A federal lawsuit to force Georgia to redraw its U.S. House districts was filed in 2021, and it is still far from resolved. On June 8, the three judges handling the case asked both sides to submit new briefs. The case is Georgia State Conference of the NAACP v Georgia, n.d., 1:21cv-5338.
The U.S. Supreme Court had handed down its Alabama redistricting decision on June 8, 2023, and had ruled that the federal Voting Rights Act requires Alabama to change its districts to make it likely that African-Americans will be a majority of the voters in two districts, not just one. The new briefs in the Georgia case will explain whether the Alabama decision must be applied to Georgia.
The new Alabama districts will probably be passed by the Alabama legislature in the next few weeks. The job in Alabama isn’t that difficult, because in Alabama the lower court had already approved a plan for two Black-majority districts. But the Georgia case will take far longer to resolve. It is somewhat likely that any new Georgia districts (should Georgia lose the lawsuit) won’t be in place for many months. If the districts aren’t settled by January 2024, Georgia will probably need to give some petitioning relief to any independent or minor party candidates who petition in 2024. The petitioning period for district office in Georgia runs from mid-January to mid-July. In 2002, a U.S. District Court judge cut the number of signatures to approximately two-thirds of normal, because the petitioning period was shortened due to late redistricting. The same thing happened in Georgia in 1982, when the normal petitioning was cut down to only one-fourth of normal, but only in the two Atlanta districts.

Multi member districts would let voters create their own virtual districts with their own votes.
Drawing districts to favor one or another demographic group just makes them less competitive, anyway. And, that’s not just in the favored districts. All the other districts become less competitive, as well.
In fact, I think that it is not unreasonable to suspect that drawing up demographically favored Congressional districts have made more and more Congressional districts uncompetitive across the entire country, resulting in less and lees turnover in Congress.
So much wasted time, effort, resources, talent…none of this is even remotely productive. It’s quite literally the opposite, as more of it only generates yet more.
This issue demonstrates the demographic crisis that the Democrats have created for themselves. As more and more minority districts get locked into the Democratic Party, conversely, more and more non-minority districts get locked into the Republican Party.
It has reached the point that the Democrats are terrified not to renominate their oldest white liberal, Biden, for fear that the party will collapse into demographic chaos. Which minority “deserves” next to be nominated? Can they win if they don’t nominate a minority?

AZ: All of them.
Walter: They will have to find someone who checks all the boxes simultaneously. Naturally, this person is highly unlikely to meet anything more than the bare minimum constitutional qualifications, if that. But of course they will just be a figurehead.
If a late stage dementia patient who has to be pumped full of performance enhancing drugs every time they get wheeled out in the mere hope they can avoid obviously senile senior moment gaffes of monumental levels can do the job, and the country still more or less survive four years of this charade, it proves (at least in their pea brains) that our hypothetical future Mx Check All Boxes should be able to replicate such a feat. After all, if someone who barely if at all registers a pulse or any measurable brain activity can do it, anyone can, right?
The Democrats will have to find a bi-racial, bi-sexual, bi-lingual, female, Bahai Hispanic candidate, and FAST!
They’re going to lose with anyone next year, so they have five years, or at least 4 and change.
The Democrats are working hard on rigging another election.
They can only rig it when it’s close enough. When it’s a big enough landslide, like next year, they can’t get away with it. They’d have a revolution on their hands, and they know it. It took a lot more than the vote fraud last time. First they had to do the biowarfare plandemic, shut everything down and crash the economy, have burn loot murder chimp outs all over the place, and illegally change voting rules in a bunch of places. If they do that this time though people would blame the dims. They got nothing.
