ANI 30 Apr 2026, 06:26 GMT+10 Washington DC US , April 30 (ANI): The US Supreme Court on Wednesday delivered a landmark 6-3 ruling in Louisiana v. Callais that significantly altered the legal landscape of American elections. The decision, authored by Justice Samuel Alito, effectively narrowed the scope of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act (VRA), making it drastically more difficult for plaintiffs to challenge legislative maps on the grounds of racial vote dilution. The ruling sparked immediate and fierce condemnation from civil rights advocates and Democratic leaders, who argue the Court has signaled a 'day of loss' for American democracy.
