Supreme Court blocks Missouri GOP from using new congressional map in midterms
TL;DR Summary
The Supreme Court rejected Missouri Republicans’ emergency request to use a newly drawn 2025 congressional map for this year’s midterms, leaving in place the Missouri Supreme Court’s ruling that the map cannot be used while a ballot referendum challenges it. As a result, the 2022 map—featuring six Republican-held seats and two Democratic-held seats—remains in effect for the 2026 elections, with the referendum battle continuing.
