Federal Judge Approves Map with Additional Majority-Minority District in Georgia, But Also Hands Georgia Legislature a Gerrymandering Victory

A Georgia racial gerrymandering case was finalized December 28th, approving a new map which included another majority-minority Congressional district.  The map puts Georgia in compliance with the Voting Rights Act Section 2.  But the Georgia legislature further gerrymandered other districts, including the district of a current Black congresswoman.
