I would say certain parts of it are unconstitutional. Of course I have bias since I live a state that has a pre-clearance requirement, and someone who may end up in a minority-majority district after redistricting takes place.

Pre-Clearance and the redistricting was actually the part of the bill I was interested in the constitutionality of.
