Answer:The recent decision of the supreme court which influences the application of the voting rights act is that it removed the designation of jurisdictions that needed preclearance to change voting laws.

The Voting Rights Act of 1965, signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson, aimed to overcome legal barriers at the state and local levels that prevented African Americans from exercising their right to vote as guaranteed under the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
