Indiana House Republicans pass Trump-backed map, setting up high-stakes Senate fight

Indiana state House Republicans passed a new state congressional map Friday at the behest of President Donald Trump, advancing the legislation to the state Senate, where it is unclear if enough lawmakers will support its final passage. Lawmakers in the Republican-majority House voted 57-41 in favor of the map, which splits the city of Indianapolis into four districts to help the GOP potentially win all nine Indiana congressional seats. While Trump and many other Republicans are celebrating the passage, the map faces its […]

Supreme Court lets Texas use disputed voting map— for now

The U.S. Supreme Court has temporarily cleared the way for Texas to use its newly redrawn congressional map in the 2026 midterm elections. Civil rights groups say the map was engineered to dilute the voting power of voters of color. The order came late Friday (Nov. 21) from Justice Samuel Alito, who handles emergency matters arising from the region. His administrative stay blocks a lower-court ruling and gives the full court time to decide whether Texas can keep the map […]

Texas cannot use a new congressional map drawn by Republicans in hopes of securing the party additional U.S. House seats, a panel of three federal judges ruled Tuesday.

To be sure, politics played a role […]

California voters approved new congressional district boundaries Tuesday, delivering a victory for Democrats in the state-by-state redistricting battle that will help determine which party wins control of the U.S. House in 2026 and, with it, the power to thwart or advance President Donald Trump’s agenda.

The Texas House OK’d GOP-favored redistricting. California intends to counter with map of its own

The national redistricting battle enters its next phase Thursday as California Democrats are scheduled to pass a new congressional map that creates five winnable seats for their party, a direct counter to the Texas House’s approval of a new map to create more conservative-leaning seats in that state.
