Supreme Court's Voting Rights Decision Sparks Political and Social Tensions

TL;DR Summary
The article discusses how the Supreme Court's potential decision to weaken the Voting Rights Act could lead to increased gerrymandering by both parties, with Republicans gaining an advantage in the South and Democrats in blue states through strategic redistricting. While this could diminish minority representation and reduce electoral competitiveness, Democrats might exploit the ruling to redraw districts favorably, though at the cost of diversity and fairness.
