Supreme Court procedural decision allowing disputed Texas congressional map to remain in effect for 2026 elections while litigation continues. A-score: Election integrity driver scores 4.5 (direct impact on electoral outcomes through gerrymandering, affects multiple congressional districts). Rule of law 3.5 (judicial intervention in ongoing redistricting dispute, but procedural stay rather than final ruling). Civil rights 3.5 (potential vote dilution effects on minority communities, core voting rights concern). Separation 2.5 (Court involvement in state redistricting process). Capture 2.0 (map benefits one party structurally). Corruption 1.5 (partisan advantage baked into district lines). Durability 1.2 (affects 2026 cycle definitively, litigation ongoing). Reversibility 0.95 (can be changed post-litigation but election impacts persist). Precedent 1.1 (reinforces Court deference to state maps pending appeals). Mechanism modifier 1.15 (judicial action with electoral consequences). Scope 0.75 (single state, though Texas is large). B-score: Layer 1 moderate-high (outrage 6 - gerrymandering triggers partisan response, media_friendliness 7 - clear partisan angle, novelty 2 - recurring issue). Layer 2: timing 7 (2026 election framing creates urgency), pattern_match 6 (fits gerrymandering narrative), mismatch 4 (procedural stay vs substantive ruling). Intentionality 6 (partisan framing in headlines, election timing emphasis). Delta +7.16 favors A-list classification.
