Supreme Court blocks Trump-backed Missouri congressional map for midterms

Original: Supreme court blocks Trump-backed Missouri congressional map from use in midterms

The US Supreme Court has blocked a Trump-backed Republican redraw of Missouri's congressional districts from being used in the upcoming midterm elections. The ruling stops the new map, which critics said was designed to entrench Republican advantage, from taking effect. The decision is a setback for Trump and Missouri Republicans who pushed the redistricting effort, and it keeps the existing district boundaries in place for the midterms.

Why now: The Supreme Court's intervention in a high-profile partisan redistricting fight ahead of the midterms has major implications for control of Congress.
