A federal district court had ordered a second black-majority congressional district be created in Louisiana after finding black voters were underrepresented.
The facility will house the ‘worst of the worst,’ said Secretary Kristi Noem. Nebraska’s ‘Cornhusker Clink’ and Indiana’s ‘Speedway Slammer’ will also be used.
Louisiana has asked the appeals court to stay the ruling until the Supreme Court rules on a related federal redistricting case it will hear in October.
