Source: PBS News HourAlabama Republicans asked the Supreme Court Wednesday to let them use a map that favors their party in this year's elections, despite a lower court's ruling that the map intentionally discriminates against Black people. Republican leaders filed an emergency appeal with the justices a day after the lower court refused to let the state use a map it adopted three years ago that has a Black majority in just one of its seven congressional districts.
