flag House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries defended calling elections "rigged," citing Republican gerrymandering, especially in Texas, as justification.

flag House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries defended using the term “rigged elections” during a CBS interview, linking it to Republican efforts to gerrymander congressional maps, particularly in Texas, to secure partisan advantage. flag He argued Democrats are pushing for fair districting to counteract what he called widespread Republican-led manipulation, asserting their own redistricting efforts, like in New York, were bipartisan and equitable. flag CBS host Margaret Brennan questioned the consistency of Jeffries’ stance, noting Democrats previously rejected similar language when used by Republicans, but did not press further, drawing criticism for perceived media bias. flag The exchange underscored partisan divisions over election fairness and redistricting ahead of the 2026 midterms.
