On the evening of Tuesday, June 2, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to reverse the lower 3-judge court in Allen v Singleton, 25A1316. The Court reinstated the districts drawn last month by the Alabama legislature. Here is the document and the dissent.
The Alabama Secretary of State now has the job of figuring out how many signatures will be needed for minor party and independent candidates to get on the November ballot. The formula is 3% of the last gubernatorial vote, i.e., the November 2022 gubernatorial vote. It is not easy to do this calculation, because obviously the districts drawn in May 2026 by the legislature did not exist in 2022.
There are uncontradicted precedents from Alabama, Montana, Illinois, Georgia, and Florida, that when the normal petitioning period is shortened, the state must reduce the number of signatures. The normal petitioning period in Alabama starts on the day of the previous general election. Alabama always defends its difficult petition requirements by pointing out that candidates have 20 months in which to get the signatures. But in this case, no one could have been petitioning for U.S. House because no one knew until tonight what the district boundaries would be. It will be interesting to see if Alabama lowers the requirements for U.S. House petitions. Louisiana, Florida, and Tennessee this year eased petitioning requirements for U.S. House.

Quotas, quotas, quotas! Abolish all the damn ballot access laws.
Spam, spam, spambot spam! Abolish all the spambot fake news spam!
Excellent ruling, as I expected and predicted, from the US Supreme Court, despite all the usual fake news, outside communist agitators, race pimps, negro supremacists, anti-White racists, self-hating Whites, libtards, leftards, screeching and whining.
Hopefully this will be the last of it, but they will no doubt waste the courts time with still more endless frivolous lawsuits about it, block roads and tie up traffic with their angry mobs, and perhaps do some burning, looting, murdering, rioting, etc.
They will certainly call us names and demand yet another federal occupation, all because we dare defend our rights, and to choose our own representation in Congress rather than have the federal government dictate it for us in a completely unconstitutional fashion, much as when they unconstitutionally forced us back into their damned union, and again a century later.
This is a great ruling by the US Supreme Court majority. Congratulations to the oppressed White People of Alabama, who have suffered so many decades under federal and negro oppression, for finally getting a fair shake for once! Hail Victory!
According to the last print issue of B.A.N. the petitioning deadline in Alabama had already passed. Will candidates need to sue to get relief?
They might sue, but they will get no relief.
