[See NewsBusters for more.] Legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin and New York Magazine columnist Errol Louis joined Tuesday's CNN Newsroom to accuse the Supreme Court of trampling on voting rights when it issued a stay of a case of a lower court ruling that had invalidated Alabama's new congressional map that didn't include a second majority black district. 

Host Bianna Golodryga was confused why the Court ruled the way it did, after all Chief Justice Roberts joined the liberals in dissenting, so she asked Toobin to help clarify, "Jeffrey, let’s begin with you because if you're to just follow what Chief Justice Roberts' opinion states, it's that the lower court followed the law. So, if that was in case true, why did the majority rule the way it did and stay the case? Stay the law?"
