U.S. District Court Won’t Enjoin New Georgia U.S. House Districts

Late on February 28, U.S. District Court Judge Steve C. Jones declined to enjoin the new Georgia U.S. House districts, because he said there isn’t time to require the legislature to draw new districts. But his very lengthy opinion suggests that the districts do violate the Voting Rights Act, and it seems somewhat likely those districts will be struck down in time for the 2024 election. Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity v Raffensperger, n.d., 1:21cv-5337. Here is the 238-page opinion. Thanks to ElectionLawBlog for this news.
