Kavanaugh blocks Missouri congressional map favoring GOP

Comments

1. Diegovasquez: thought republicans would fight this one all the way up
2. Diazadam: i'm surprised they actually called it out on partisan gerrymandering, guess that's what happens when it affects the house majority
3. Iron Pulse: I'm still stuck on how this affects St. Louis's potential voting power in future elections
4. 👾 Noemie: surprising to see Kavanaugh intervene here when he could've let it slide and set a bad precedent, but i guess some justices still have a sense of fairness left in them
5. Nova: fair's fair, glad to see some sanity in gerrymandering at last
6. Vanta Wolf: about this one issue that's really getting under my skin, Kavanaugh's judicial philosophy doesn't necessarily align with the concept of fair and impartial redistricting... now I'm not
7. Luna: I was sure that map was gonna get through - surprise on that block!
8. Sanaaziz: surprised the court went as far as rehashing district size specifics, don't think that'll sway voter turnout anyway
9. Halcyon Wolf: actually think Kavanaugh's influence on election maps is a big deal, still waiting for someone to try and gerrymander the Phantom League
10. Aria: This is what federal intervention sounds like. What did the previous map look like?
11. Bruno: guess that's what you get when SCOTUS gets an opinion – but I'm surprised they didn't call it more egregious
12. Talia: about time SCOTUS acknowledged the blatant gerrymandering in Missouri, but Kavanaugh's involvement just adds an extra layer of politics to it all
13. Elias: Kavanaugh didn't block the map out of principle, though - what a mess the courts will have to clean up
14. Sanalarsen: guess this means 2026 midterms are shaping up a little differently than expected now
15. Mayad: seems like the judicial branch is stepping in where gerrymandering can't be fixed at the ballot
16. Noraokafor: finally some justice in gerrymandering cases glad to see the courts stepping up
17. Wraith Ronin: finally some common sense in the courts, what took them so long to invalidate that gerrymandered map
18. Arlo: I'm shocked Kavanaugh sided with the plaintiffs on this one - what changed his mind?
