Missouri Maps Face Voter Challenge, Legal Battles

Opponents in Missouri are organizing to block the state's new Republican-drawn congressional map via a referendum. They must gather over 100,000 signatures by mid-December to force a public vote, potentially delaying implementation until after the 2026 midterms. Legal challenges have also been filed. Republicans, aiming to gain a seat, passed the map which critics argue prioritizes politicians over constituents and is a national redistricting trend.
