If federal courts unpacked #VA03 to create an additional Black opportunity district in 2016, a consistent interpretation of the VRA would also demand that #AL07, #LA02 and likely #SC06 be unpacked to create second Black majority seats too. We'll see what courts say this time. — PolitiTweet.org

I think @mcpli's broader point is fair, but the way I'd frame it is that vastly different standards are being applied to non-white communities in TX vs. IL, AL vs. VA, etc. depending on partisan motive, absent a clearer set of VRA rules from SCOTUS/Congress. — PolitiTweet.org

In TX/GA, Republicans shored up their own suburban seats by purging Dem voters who are predominantly non-white, of many races/ethnicities. In IL/NM, Dems rationalized fairly creative gerrymanders by linking minority communities in far-flung parts of those states. — PolitiTweet.org
