Indiana Senators Defy Trump, North Carolina Embraces Gerrymandering
Update: 2025-12-13
Description
Indiana Republicans join Democrats to reject Trumps proposed congressional district maps, potentially shifting the balance from a seven-two Republican advantage to a nine-zero Republican advantage. Meanwhile, North Carolina Republicans approve a new map, expected to further increase their Republican advantage, influenced by Trumps call for states to adjust maps to favor Republicans. Indiana state senator Spencer Deery emphasizes the importance of maintaining public trust in elections, while North Carolinas Berger and Hall support the new map, with Berger potentially receiving a Trump endorsement. The redrawn North Carolina map is anticipated to secure another Republican U.S. House seat, sparking strong reactions from Democratic senators who call it an egregious example of partisan power grabs.
