What Democratic districts would Republicans weaken or eliminate if the VRA is weakened?

Black districts
NC01- was already at risk
FL-05, depends on state court but also was already on shaky ground in the first place.


GA-02 depends on if the GOP even has the trifecta or the mood for doing it. I lean no.

Maybe Alabama's black seat but no other deep southern seats.

Texas might go very aggressive on the valley but this is different and the Gingles case was already pretty weak here due to the split voting of RGV hispanics compare to the bloc voting of African Americans.

A lot of them. We need to abolish the Supreme Court before it abolishes the USA.

Here's an interesting option. The west Houston districts like TX 38 and TX22 are a bit weak but the Eastern Houston districts are pretty safe . If the VRA is weakened its possible to use TX14 and 36 to weaken TX 29th to make it a tossup. TX 29 only has a few dozen thousand net votes.

Obviously a new institution that doesn't give people who believe women are made of spare ribs or put pubes in women's soft drinks a lifetime appointment to make decisions for other people without their express consent?
