The Supreme Court issued a ruling on the Voting Rights Act in early July 2021 that upheld state authority over election procedures. The decision drew immediate reaction from Democrats who argued it opened the door to new restrictions on voting access. Republicans maintained the measures addressed legitimate concerns over election integrity. The cartoon shows the GOP elephant coating a baseball with voter suppression laws while the Supreme Court figure declares the substances acceptable. This visual ties directly to ongoing debates over absentee ballots, drop boxes and district maps following the ruling.

A political cartoon depicts a Republican state legislature elephant brandishing a giant crayon labeled gerrymandering while rejecting nonpartisan redistricting. The image responds to ongoing fights over congressional maps following the 2020 census. Lawmakers in multiple states moved to draw new districts in 2021, often along partisan lines. Critics argued the process favored incumbents and reduced competitive seats. The cartoon highlights resistance to independent commissions that some states adopted to limit such influence.
