A three-judge panel for the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals heard arguments Thursday regarding Missouri’s congressional map. The legal proceedings occur as the state approaches a deadline to begin distributing ballots to voters in the coming days.
The central issue before the court is whether it remains legally permissible to implement changes to the existing congressional district boundaries given the proximity of the election. The outcome of the case will determine if the current map stands or if adjustments are required before the ballot distribution process begins.
