Allen v. Milligan · ¶25

After this Court's order, Alabama announced that it intended to use the 2023 Redistricting Plan for the upcoming election and took the unusual step of splitting its congressional primary. In the three congressional districts unaffected by the change in congressional map, the May 19 primary election went ahead as scheduled. In the other four districts, voters still cast their ballots. Their votes for Congress, however, did not count. Instead, Alabama's Legislature passed a law permitting the Governor to call a special primary election in the four congressional districts whose lines changed as a result of this Court's order, and the Governor set that election for August 11.
