  Attorneys for Orange County and the Supervisor of Elections went before a judge Wednesday morning as more issues arise in a spending scandal.

The article from MSN discusses a legal hearing involving attorneys for Orange County and its elections office, set for Wednesday. The hearing addresses a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Florida against Orange County, alleging that the county's redistricting plan discriminates against Black voters. The lawsuit claims that the redistricting map, approved by the county commissioners, dilutes the voting power of Black communities by reducing the number of districts where Black voters could elect their preferred candidates. This action follows a previous decision by a federal judge who struck down a similar map in 2022 for violating the Voting Rights Act. The upcoming hearing will likely focus on arguments regarding the legality and fairness of the current redistricting plan under federal voting rights laws.
