Is Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act Going to Continue?

Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act prohibits election practices that result in a denial or abridgment of the right to vote on account of race. Section 2 is often used for vote-dilution claims, which refers to instances where legislators draw districts in ways that dilute the voting power of some groups. The plaintiffs here claim that Alabama's plan created one rather than two minority opportunity districts by dividing, cracking the black population among several different districts.
