  b. African Americans
  c. nonvoters
  d. states' rights advocates

Question 2

In State X, legislative districts are drawn in such a way that African-American and Hispanic 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 Hispanic 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 Hispanics' voting power.
  e. Probably not; no redistricting can occur without federal input.
