Florida Supreme Court keeps DeSantis-drawn maps in place for 2026 midterms
TL;DR Summary
The Florida Supreme Court rejected voting-rights groups' challenge and allowed Gov. Ron DeSantis’ newly drawn congressional maps to stand for the 2026 midterms. The GOP-leaning lines could add up to four Republican seats, though a separate constitutional challenge over their validity continues, while the current delegation remains 20 Republicans to 8 Democrats.
