“The Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down Louisiana’s second majority Black congressional district in a decision that could open the door for Republican-led states to eliminate Black and Latino electoral districts that tend to favor Democrats and affect the balance of power in …”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim specifically mentions the Supreme Court striking down Louisiana's *second* majority Black congressional district on 'Wednesday.' While the web search results confirm that the Supreme Court was sharply divided on whether to strike down Louisiana's congressional map due to the addition of a second majority-Black district (citing 'Louisiana v Callais'), the provided evidence does not confirm the specific outcome (that it *was* struck down) or the specific date ('Wednesday'). The evidence is limited to reporting the dispute and the existence of the case, making the claim's specific assertion about the ruling and date unconfirmable with the provided sources.
