Is this even required? Section 4(f)(2) of the VRA lists the classes afforded Section 2 protections, and Whites are not among them. It's for this reason that majority-Jewish congressional districts don't have to be drawn in New York, or majority-LGBT city council districts in San Franciso, for example.
Also, it could be argued that White voters don't meet the second prong of the Giles test as they aren't a "politically cohesive" group.
