Louisiana GOP Wants to Destroy Black Political Power

Power threatened. Rules rewritten mid-election. Black voters could lose the ability to elect a candidate of choice at every level of government.

Louisiana’s election was already underway when a Supreme Court ruling and state action threw the process into chaos. Absentee ballots had been cast, early voting was set to begin, and officials moved to alter the ballot midstream. Advocates warn the fallout could strip Black voters of the ability to elect candidates of choice, with implications far beyond Louisiana.

🔥 A Supreme Court ruling upended Louisiana’s congressional map during an active election cycle
🔥 Absentee ballots had already been sent and returned before changes were announced
🔥 State officials moved to pull congressional races from the ballot, creating confusion statewide
🔥 Voters were left unsure whether their votes would count or if the election was canceled
🔥 The ruling threatens protections that enabled Black voters to elect candidates of choice
🔥 “Those votes are already in the bag… they’re telling us those votes won’t be counted.” — Gary Chambers Jr.
🔥 “Black voters… could lose the ability to elect a candidate of choice at every level of government.” — Ashley Shelton
🔥 “This is a break glass moment.” — Davin Rosborough
