(NewsNation) — Alabama voters are casting their ballots Tuesday in multiple state and federal races.
The state’s seven congressional districts were redrawn after a three-judge panel ruled in favor of redistricting last year. It was considered a win for Black voters, as the judges ruled the state should have two districts where Black voters are the majority or close to it.
