Six states redrew congressional maps in 2025 ahead of 2026 midterms, sparking legal battles and raising concerns over partisan gerrymandering.
In 2025, six states—Texas, California, Utah, North Carolina, Missouri, and Ohio—redrew congressional maps ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, defying the traditional decennial cycle.
Driven by partisan strategy, particularly by Republican leaders such as Texas Governor Greg Abbott, the changes sparked legal challenges, with Utah's map being overturned and Ohio's approved for only two cycles.
Analysts anticipate only minor shifts in House control, with potential gains of one or two seats.
Partisan gerrymandering remains unregulated at the federal level, and while public opinion favors independent commissions, state legislatures maintain control.
Additional redistricting may take place in Virginia, Maryland, and Florida before 2026, with primary and filing deadlines influencing timelines.
