The Department of Justice has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to block California’s newly approved congressional map, saying it was drawn with unconstitutional racial considerations and should not be used in the 2026 midterm elections. This fight, depending on the outcomes, could dramatically impact the 2028 presidential election, too.
In a filing to the high court, Solicitor General D. John Sauer argued that one of the districts created under the map approved by California voters last year was “tainted by an unconstitutional racial gerrymander,” in violation of the Voting Rights Act. The petition urges the justices to intervene quickly and prevent the state from implementing the map in upcoming elections.
