In 2022, Brett Kavanaugh let Albama use racially gerrymandered maps in its midterm elections. Kavanaugh joined the liberal justices and Chief Justice John Roberts in ruling against the maps. His opinion backed up the other liberal justices and Roberts, proving to be the crucial vote in the narrow decision. Kavanaugh sided with those justices in February 2022, allowing Alabama to use the maps for the 2022 election. At the time, Kavanaugh said he'd allow the maps temporarily so it wouldn't disrupt the elections in November.
