Alabama GOP Asks Supreme Court to Reinstate Congressional Map

Their ruling forces Alabama to continue using the court-drawn congressional map first implemented during the 2024 election cycle. That map created a second district with a substantial Black voting population and ultimately paved the way for Democratic Rep. Shomari Figures to win office.

Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall blasted the decision and vowed to continue fighting.

“This is a very fluid situation, and I will do my best to keep the people of Alabama apprised of our efforts,” Marshall said. “Know this—in my mind, it is not a matter of whether we win this case, only when.”
