Supreme Court Declines to Hear Case Alleging Voter Discrimination in Georgia’s Public Service Commission

The US Supreme Court has decided not to take up a case alleging voter discrimination in Georgia. The case involves the state's public service commission, which is responsible for regulating utilities and setting rates. The commission has been accused of disenfranchising Black voters.

With the Supreme Court's decision on Monday to not hear the case, an appeals court ruling will stand, putting an end to further delays in the legal proceedings.
