Abstract

The purpose of this note is to analyze the impact and scope of the United States Supreme Court's landmark decision in Shaw v. Reno. This Note will attempt to recommend guidelines which will enable local government officials to negotiate the narrow and winding path between the standards of the VRA and the ambiguous restrictions set by the Court's decision.
