Missouri court blocks Trump-backed U.S. House map and orders it to be put to a vote
Americas2 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported1h ago
The Missouri Supreme Court has unanimously blocked a new, Trump-backed U.S. House map from being used in the upcoming November elections. Alongside halting the congressional boundaries, the court ordered that the redistricting plan be put to a statewide vote.
Republicans had originally designed and supported Missouri's new congressional boundaries with the strategic hope of securing an additional seat. The outcome of this redistricting effort was viewed as significant for the party's broader national efforts to maintain and hold onto their slim majority in the House of Representatives during the midterms.
