I am a white democrat living in Cameron Parish. Yes, this is considered re- districting to disadvantage black voters in our state, but there are many standing with our black citizens.
It’s hard to feel like our vote counts. We really need to get rid of the electoral college.

Get rid of electoral kindergarten. Problem solved.

Impeach Thomas and the rest of the corrupt judges!

White, moderate, independent voter who voted for Trump in 2016 but Biden in 2020 here. The credibility of the Supreme Court is really at a tipping point. If they expedite, this Louisiana case like they did the Colorado case while slow rolling the Alabama, South Carolina and presidential immunity decisions their objectivity, professionalism and integrity is open to question. Accordingly, it invites scrutiny in regard to the need for judicial oversight, even for the SCOTUS.

It's sad that the Supreme Court can find the time to rush to Trump's aid, and not have time to solve problems that helps blacks, or people who represents people on the other sides. Does not build trust in the Supreme Court opinions.

The racists are very determined to make racism the law of the land, using the tactic that "racism no longer exists."

It all boils down to one word -racism. It is alive and well. This ruling is racist. It must be appeal at once.

[mileshigh]

Unbelievable that racists get to take this anywhere! Welcome back to 1860 USA !

WE THE PEOPLE must work together to insure that the republican party never holds a majority in the house and senate ever again .

Should Eileen Cannon be accused of election interference by postponing the trial?

33% of Louisiana's population is Black. Louisiana has 6 Congressional districts.
How is it possible that Louisiana has 5 White districts??
