Indiana lawmakers who defied Trump shrug off regrets after primary losses

TL;DR Summary
Seven Indiana state Senate Republicans who opposed a mid-decade redistricting plan faced Trump-backed primaries; five were defeated as outside money poured in (about $12 million in ads) while others advanced. Three incumbents—Greg Walker, Jim Buck, and Linda Rogers—say they have zero regrets, arguing they acted on district wishes and against what they saw as an unfair process. The episode underscores how outside spending and gerrymandering fears are influencing elections and reflects a nationwide push and Supreme Court considerations surrounding new congressional maps.
