New York Eyes Mid-Decade Redistricting Ahead of 2028 Elections
New York lawmakers gave preliminary approval to a constitutional amendment allowing mid-decade redistricting ahead of the 2028 elections, a move that would remove current map-drawing restrictions and could shift several GOP seats to Democrats. The amendment must pass again next year and win voter approval in November 2027, with Democrats seeking control over referendum wording and Republicans warning of a rigged process amid a high-stakes partisan fight.
