@chrisgeidner@CahnEmily Ginsberg wanted 8-0, so they didn't touch whether states must use total population. Or court split 4-4 on that. -
@chrisFnicholson@CahnEmily Well, it wasn't required for resolution, so it makes sense the court didn't decide it. -
@chrisFnicholson@CahnEmily As is, she was able to get 6 votes for what she did write—which Alito/Thomas thought "suggests" total pop req'd. -
@chrisgeidner@CahnEmily OK, that makes sense. So they at least sent a signal to the GOP states considering rewriting their laws.
