Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi Before DAVIS, HIGGINSON, and WILLETT, Circuit Judges. W.

No. 19-60133 the district, as drawn in 2012, diluted African-American voting strength. Following a two-day bench trial, the district court concluded that the evidence established a § 2 violation under the standards set forth in Thornburg v.
