Supreme Court blocks Missouri gerrymandered map for midterms
Original: In a win for voters, Supreme Court blocks Missouri’s gerrymandered map for midterms
The Supreme Court has blocked Missouri's contested congressional redistricting map from being used in the upcoming midterm elections, according to Democracy Docket. The ruling is being framed as a victory for voters who challenged the map as an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander. The decision means Missouri's districts for the midterms will be drawn under different boundaries while litigation continues over how the state's maps were redrawn.
Why now: The Supreme Court's intervention in a state redistricting fight just before midterm elections has immediate consequences for congressional control.
