White House intensifies redistricting efforts in Indiana amid GOP and Trump influence

The White House is increasing pressure on Indiana to redraw congressional districts in favor of Republicans ahead of the 2024 midterms, with Vice President JD Vance visiting Indianapolis to meet with GOP leaders. The effort aims to gain more seats in the House, targeting Democratic incumbents, amid a nationwide redistricting race driven by Republican efforts in several states. Indiana's GOP holds a majority in the state legislature, making Democratic efforts to block redistricting unlikely, and the process could involve a special legislative session.
