  b. Sierra Club
  c. American Association of Retired Persons

Question 2

In State X, legislative districts are drawn in such a way that African American and Latino voting strength is spread among several districts, thus reducing the likelihood of minority candidates winning office. Is this redistricting plan legal?
 
  a. Probably. The Supreme Court allows states discretion in drawing legislative districts as long as the districts are nearly equal in population.
  b. Probably. The districts are legal as long as each district has the same number of African American and Latino residents.
  c. Probably not. This plan would violate the Supreme Court's one-person, one-vote rulings.
  d. Probably not. The Voting Rights Act prohibits actions that diminish African Americans' and Latinos' voting power.
  e. Probably not. No redistricting can occur without federal input.
