(Bismarck, ND) -- Two Native American tribes are suing North Dakota over its redistricting map.
The Turtle Mountain and Spirit Lakes tribes claim many indigenous communities are packed into one sub district, then spread thinly into two other districts where they say white voters "bloc vote against Native Americans."
They say the map limits their power to one subdistrict, while also pulling a minority of Native Americans into another subdistrict, diluting the power of their votes.
