Blacks: 1, Gerrymandering: 0

A decision was finally handed down today that said the city of Euclid was diluting the Black vote. From the news piece:

"No black person has ever been elected to Euclid's city council or school board, even though the city's expanding black population tops 30 percent. Eight candidates have failed badly in elections since 1995."

Some progress in an otherwise ass-backward state. hmph.
