Alabama Republicans are poised to pass new congressional district maps that ignore a Supreme Court order to create a second majority-Black district. The proposed maps include a district that is only 42% Black in the House plan and 38% Black in the Senate plan, which voting rights groups say would not give Black voters a real chance to elect candidates of their choice. Plaintiffs who challenged the original maps as a violation of the Voting Rights Act plan to fight the new maps in court as well, arguing that Alabama Republicans are intentionally drawing maps that disenfranchise Black voters in defiance of the Supreme Court order. The new maps have drawn national attention, with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy reaching out to Alabama legislators to discuss how the maps could impact control of Congress.
The Alabama governor is then going to fuck around and find out. He’s not above the law and failure to comply with a court order could result in prosecution.
Their goal isnt to win this fight, it’s to delay the process long enough to install someone that’ll declare them the victor.

Who’s going to prosecute him? Garland? Lmao.
Her. Kay Ivey is a woman.
I’ll admit the idea Alabama could have elected a female governor did not occur to me, seems somewhat out of character tbh.
Watch 2 minutes of her speaking, you’ll understand. She’s a GrandKaren.
She. The governor is a woman.
