Is U.S. Voting set to change forever? | Analysis from Washington
Description
CBC’s weekly podcast, Two Blocks from the White House, takes a clear-eyed look at what’s happening in the U.S. right now and what it means for Canadians.
This week’s episode of Two Blocks from the White House looks at how a new Supreme Court ruling is reshaping U.S. voting districts. Last week, the court neutralized a key part of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, ruling that a congressional map in Louisiana gave too much consideration to race when drawing voting districts. Following the decision, many states have begun redrawing their electoral maps, with some changes expected to influence future election results. CBC Washington correspondents Paul Hunter, Katie Simpson and Willy Lowry unpack what this means for U.S. politics.
