DeSantis Plans Mid-Decade Redistricting in Florida
Update: 2025-12-02
Description
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis plans to call a special legislative session next spring to redraw the states congressional map, following a potential U.S. Supreme Court decision. This move aligns with a national trend of mid-decade redistricting, as both parties strategize for the 2026 midterm elections. Republicans argue that this effort is necessary to prevent Democratic-led states from maximizing their seats. Floridas House leadership has already started preparing, with a Select Committee on Congressional Redistricting holding its first meeting in December. Democrats and activist groups are preparing to challenge this effort, citing potential conflicts with the states Fair Districts amendment.
