Missouri asks Supreme Court to revive Republican-drawn congressional map
The state says the map would help Republicans win another House seat and preserve their narrow majority.
- Missouri's Supreme Court blocked the new Republican-backed congressional map, ruling it cannot take effect without voter approval in a statewide referendum despite being used in the recent primaries.
- The ruling reverts Missouri to the post-2020 census districts for the November 2026 election, forcing candidates nominated under new boundaries to run under old lines.
- Attorney General Catherine Hanaway appealed the decision to the U.S. Supreme Court, calling the ruling unprecedented and a constitutional crisis.
- Democratic Rep. Emanuel Cleaver and supporters hailed the ruling as a victory for voters' voices, while President Trump condemned it as unconstitutional and warned of election chaos.
