一句话看懂
Missouri Supreme Court blocked a GOP-favored congressional map, ordering a November referendum. Voters now decide district boundaries, a rare setback in Trump's redistricting push.
背景
Missouri's Republican-led legislature redrew congressional districts, which critics said favored Republicans. A citizen campaign, People Not Politicians, gathered over 300,000 signatures to force a referendum on the map. Secretary of State Denny Hoskins rejected the petition, leading to a legal battle that reached the Missouri Supreme Court.
