It is no longer the Roberts court, though he voted with the liberals, he wasn't able to convince any of the others.

Supreme Court allows Alabama voting maps that advocates say disenfranchise Black voters

In a 5-4 vote, the U.S. Supreme Court cleared the way for Alabama to use its new congressional district map even though a lower court said it violated the Voting Rights Act by denying Black voters a new district. The case — the first to reach the Supreme Court involving the redrawing of political boundaries with 2020 census results — could affect redistricting in other states that experienced gains in minority populations.
