MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — Alabama has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to let it keep Republican-drawn congressional lines in place as the state continues to fight a directive to create a second district where Black voters constitute a majority or close to it. Alabama on Monday asked the justices to stay a ruling issued by a three-judge panel that blocked the use of the GOP-drawn districts in 2024 and directed a court-appointed special master to propose new lines.
