Coverage under the Special and Minority Language Provisions of the
Voting Rights Act, by Federal Judicial District
|
Indicated below are federal judicial districts having one or more
counties covered by Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act and thus subject to
the
preclearance requirement of Section 5 and eligible for federal examiners
and
observers under Sections 6 and 8 (indicated by "special") and federal
judicial
districts having one or more counties covered by the minority language
requirements either of Section 4 or Section 203 of the Act (indicated by
"minority language"). If a state comprises a single judicial district, or
if all
of a state's judicial districts are affected in the same manner, individual
districts are not named. For a complete listing of states and counties
covered
under these provisions see the appendices to the Attorney General's Section
5
guidelines (28 C.F.R. Part 51) and minority language guidelines (28 C.F.R.
Part
55). For further information contact Voting Section Attorney David H.
Hunter
