North Carolina’s election maps for 2024 are racially biased, advocates say in lawsuit

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:30:31 GMT

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — North Carolina voting-rights advocates sued Tuesday to overturn all of the redistricting plans drawn by Republicans and being used starting with the 2024 elections, saying legislative leaders unlawfully weakened the electoral influence of Black voters. The North Carolina chapter of the NAACP, Common Cause and eight Black residents filed a lawsuit in federal court. They accuse GOP legislative leaders of intentionally moving this fall boundary lines for General Assembly and congressional districts in part so that many Black voters will be prevented from having the opportunity to elect their preferred candidates. Instead, the plaintiffs contend, Black voting blocs are submerged into districts with white majorities that don’t normally vote for Black candidates. For decades, Black residents have overwhelmingly favored Democratic candidates.“The General Assembly targeted predominantly Black voting precincts with surgical precision throughout the state in drawing...

Heads up, D.C.-area drivers: President Biden is set to depart the White House en route to a campaign reception in Bethesda, Maryland, which could exacerbate Tuesday evening rush-hour congestion in the D.C. area.“Motorcades in the D.C. area are a fact of life,” said WTOP traffic reporter Dave Dildine. “Sometimes, the traffic control happens in the blink of an eye with little impact, but sometimes the traffic impacts are more significant.”Whenever a large motorcade dips onto the suburban highways, the traffic impacts tend to be more pronounced, Dildine said, adding that any traffic queues must be cleared in advance.Last week, the area saw some of those “significant” traffic impacts during another presidential motorcade. Drivers should be prepared to see the same on Tuesday, though Dildine mentioned circumstances can “change quickly.”“Like the weather, traffic control for motorcades is only a best guess,” Dildine said. “...
