Missouri Governor Signs New Map to Help Republicans Win US House Seat

Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe signed a new US House map into law as part of President Donald Trump's plan to hold on to a narrow Republican majority in next year's congressional election. The new map is aimed at helping Republicans win another US House seat. The move comes ahead of the 2024 elections, where Missouri will have one more Representative due to a change in state population numbers. The revised map prioritizes Republican-leaning areas and reduces Democratic-held districts.
