3 Youngstown residents' lawsuit against Ohio's congressional redistricting dismissed by federal court panel.
A federal court panel has dismissed a lawsuit by three Youngstown residents challenging Ohio's congressional redistricting, which they claim disenfranchises black voters. The court found no violation of the Voting Rights Act and rejected claims regarding constitutional amendments. Although the plaintiffs can appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, their attorney suggests focusing on amending how congressional lines are drawn instead of pursuing the appeal.
