Missouri’s Districts in Legal Limbo | Global News

Missouri’s congressional map is in legal freefall as a federal judge temporarily halts use of the state’s old districts—just days before Election Day—amid a tangled web of state and federal rulings. The state Supreme Court blocked a Trump-backed redistricting plan after voters gathered enough signatures to force a statewide vote, and the U.S. Supreme Court declined to intervene. Now, with a 14-day federal injunction in place, voters face uncertainty while legal teams clash over whether federal or state courts hold sway. The Attorney General warns switching maps between primary and general elections could cause chaos, but the judge sided with using the new lines—creating a high-stakes legal tug-of-war as deadlines loom for ballots and absentee mailings.
