## Resource

On today's 'BradCast': The corrupted rightwing supermajority on the U.S. Supreme Court released their worst, most corrupt, most partisan ruling to date. The Court allowed Alabama's Republican-controlled legislature to implement new, racially-gerrymandered U.S. House maps that a lower court had twice found intentionally discriminated against Black voters, in violation of both the Voting Rights Act and the U.S. Constitution. The rightwing justices' 'shadow docket' ruling also allows Alabama to toss out its May 19 primary election results and hold new elections under the new racially-discriminatory maps. The heinous ruling underscores that pro-democracy Americans must continue the fight for voting rights and court reform. Also today: preliminary 2026 midterm primary election results in California, Iowa, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico and South Dakota.
