Montreal artist transforms historic Windsor, N.S. building via mural project | SaltWire - The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday declined to clear the way for a judge to hold a hearing to choose a new electoral map for Louisiana that includes a second majority-Black congressional district, more than a year after she ruled that a Republican-drawn map unlawfully diluted the clout of Black voters.

The justices rejected requests by challengers to the map passed by the state's Republican-led legislature to lift a federal appeals court's order that halted U.S. District Judge Shelly Dick from proceeding on a replacement map of Louisiana's six U.S. House of Representatives districts.
