The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled West Virginia can run its congressional races with the redistricting map recently struck down by a panel of federal judges.
Chief Justice John Roberts agreed to stay the previous ruling. State officials had cited a tight election timetable asking for the stay pending appeal.
