Supreme Court Rejects GOP's Plan for Extra Congressional Seat in Missouri Election

The Supreme Court rejected a Republican-friendly congressional map in Missouri, siding with opponents who argued the plan would have given the GOP an unfair advantage and handed control of an extra congressional seat to its side. The ruling came on Thursday after a swift decision from the court. It marks another setback for the GOP's efforts to capture extra seats in Congress. The outcome leaves Democrats holding onto their slim majority in the House of Representatives.
