gerrymandering stories
Elections
The Alabama Democratic Party announced Tuesday that it would maintain qualifying for potential congressional candidates until Friday, Feb. 11, at 5 p.m.
Courts
The party contends the federal court erred by testing the districts with racial benchmarks and call the order "unduly disruptive to the election process."
Courts
A federal court on Monday issued a preliminary injunction, blocking Alabama’s new congressional maps.
Opinion
The Black population once again finds that its vote (value) falls well short of the “one person, one vote doctrine."
Elections
The court ruled Alabama's new maps prevent Black Alabamians from having the opportunity to elect candidates of their choosing.
Local news
Major cities like Huntsville, Tuscaloosa, and Mobile have either completed or are in the process of completing newly drawn city district lines.
Featured Opinion
The paramount concern was self-political preservation so the most ardent task was protecting the districts of incumbent legislators.
State
The two lawsuits request a federal court halt the implementation of the new state and congressional districts.
Legislature
Republican candidate for the Alabama House Josh Pendergrass was drawn out of his district during redistricting earlier this month.
