EXPLAINED: How the Supreme Court decision on partisan gerrymandering could reshape U.S. politics

1 / 4Supreme Court Final DayThe Supreme Court is seen in Washington, Monday, June 17, 2019. WASHINGTON — The Latest on the Supreme Court's final day before its summer break :The Supreme Court is forbidding President Donald Trump's administration from adding a citizenship question to the 2020 census for now. The court says the Trump administration's explanation for wanting to add the question was"more of a distraction" than an explanation.

The court ruled 5-4 on Thursday, with Chief Justice John Roberts joining the four liberals in the relevant part of the outcome. The Census Bureau's own experts have predicted that millions of Hispanics and immigrants would go uncounted if the census asked everyone if he or she is an American citizen.The Supreme Court says federal courts have no role to play in policing political districts drawn for partisan gain. The decision could embolden political line-drawing for partisan gain when state lawmakers undertake the next round of redistricting following the 2020 census.

The court rejected challenges to Republican-drawn congressional districts in North Carolina and a Democratic district in Maryland.Two issues that could determine the distribution of political power for the next decade await resolution on the Supreme Court's final day of decisions before a long summer break.

Supreme Court has blocked the census citizenship question—for nowWith only four days until the Census Bureau's printing deadline, the citizenship question remains blocked—for now. Not even the Supreme Court wants to know how many illegals are in the country! The figure is probably 40 million by now and growing at 1 million+ a year. Exactly for now, for show...watch them! We need to know how many illegals are in this country. The Democrat mainstream media would have you believe there are 11 million illegals but in reality it's more like 40 million and growing.
