PER CURIAM:

Jacqueline Scott appeals the district court's dismissal of her complaint challenging Act No. 401 of the 2002 Session of the Georgia General Assembly (hereinafter "Act No. 401") on the grounds that it violates equal protection. Act No. 401 adopted a new voting district map for the DeKalb County Board of Commissioners. Scott argues that the district court erred in dismissing the case for lack of standing. We affirm the district court's dismissal.
