Louisiana delayed its House primaries on Thursday after a blockbuster Supreme Court ruling on a key Voting Rights Act provision. The Supreme Court on Wednesday declared Louisiana’s newly-drawn Congressional map an unconstitutional gerrymander.The high court issued the ruling 6-3.Liberal justices Sotomayor, Kagan and Jackson dissented.The case, State of Louisiana v.
