Salmon | NNPA Newswire Contributor - A trio of federal judges chose a new congressional map for Alabama after almost two years of protracted skirmishes in state, federal and US Supreme courts, but activists are still concerned about the potential for white supremacy and racial gerrymandering in the state legislature, while others are calling for more voter education and voter registration.

“Alabama’s defiance is striking and nearly unprecedented in this country’s history. A recent report offers important color and context,” said Alex Aronson, a judicial accountability advocate and former chief counsel to US Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse. “This is not an organic development.

About $600 million has been spent to control the composition of the court.”
