The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the Texas electoral map, allowing officials to implement a redistricting plan widely connected to Donald Trump and the Republican strategy for maintaining control of Congress.Critics argue this decision endorses gerrymandering and could give Republicans more House seats in the 2026 midterm elections, while California and Indiana pursue their own partisan redistricting efforts amid ongoing lawsuits and challenges by entities like the DOJ and Gavin Newsom.The ruling signals a wider trend of judicial tolerance for partisan redistricting, intensifying political and legal battles nationwide over electoral maps and minority representation.
