Alabama voters will vote in the 2024 elections using a map that includes a second district designed to empower the state's Black voters, a federal court ruled on Thursday

Critics said the Republican-controlled legislature has not complied with the Supreme Court order to remap districts to give Black voters an opportunity to elect a representative of their choice.

Black lawmakers said the new proposed Congressional map did not add a second majority-Black district after the Supreme Court ruled in June that the current map violated the federal Voting Rights Act.

The redistricting process is bleeding into election season.
