WASHINGTON—Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry says his state is stuck in the middle of a conflict between “one law and the U.S. Constitution,” and he is hopeful that the U.S. Supreme Court will use two joined cases currently before it to finally “untangle” the situation.

Landry in an interview with EpochTV’s “American Thought Leaders” host Jan Jekielek said he didn’t think the justices would completely eliminate Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, but that they would probably “narrow it.”
