路易斯安那州务卿南希·兰德里周四表示,在最高法院否决该州国会选区地图后,该州将暂停5月16日即将举行的选举中的众议院初选。

兰德里表示,尽管美国众议院议员选举仍会出现在选民的选票上,但“任何在这些选区投出的选票都不会被计入”。

“根据18:401.1(B)条款,鉴于最高法院的裁决,我已认定进入紧急状态。这是州长发布行政命令暂停路易斯安那州即将举行的联邦众议院选举之前的强制性步骤,”兰德里在社交媒体上的一份声明中说道。

兰德里表示,包括参议院初选在内的其他选举将按计划进行。她表示,其办公室将在提前投票站点张贴通知。

最高法院周三维持了下级法院的裁决,该裁决认定路易斯安那州的地图绘制者在重新划分该州选区边界以符合《选举权法案》第2条时,过度依赖种族因素。在由大法官塞缪尔·阿利托撰写的6比3裁决中,最高法院的保守派多数意见认为,符合第2条不能成为该州在重新划分众议院选区界线时使用种族因素的理由。

佛罗里达州共和党人本周早些时候批准了由州长罗恩·德桑蒂斯推动的新国会选区地图,德桑蒂斯此前曾重新划分了佛罗里达州中部的西班牙裔少数族裔选区。该州州检察官还辩称,最高法院最近的裁决意味着该州《公平选区修正案》中的相关条款违宪。

Louisiana Secretary of State Nancy Landry said Thursday that the state will suspend the House primaries for the upcoming elections on May 16 in the wake of the Supreme Court striking down the state’s Congressional map.

Landry said that while the U.S. House races will remain on voters’ ballots, “any votes cast in those races will not be counted.”

“Pursuant to 18:401.1(B), I have certified the emergency in light of the Supreme Court ruling. This is a mandatory step prior to the Governor issuing an executive order suspending the upcoming Louisiana U.S. House races,” Landry said in a statement on social media.

The other races, including the Senate primaries, are set to go on as planned, Landry said. She said her office will post noises at early voting sites.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld a lower court ruling that found Louisiana mapmakers relied too heavily on race when they redrew the state’s voting boundaries to comply with Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. In a 6-3 decision authored by Justice Samuel Alito, the Supreme Court’s conservative majority found that compliance with Section 2 could not justify the state’s use of race in redrawing its House district lines.

Florida Republicans earlier this week approved a new congressional map pushed by Gov. Ron DeSantis, who had redrawn a Hispanic-minority district in central Florida. State attorneys also argued the recent Supreme Court ruling means provisions in the state’s Fair Districts Amendment are unconstitutional.
