flag Utah’s Supreme Court upholds a Democratic-leaning congressional map, rejecting Republican challenges and preserving a judge-drawn plan for 2026.

flag Utah’s Supreme Court has rejected a Republican-led appeal to overturn a congressional map that creates a Democratic-leaning district, upholding the map for the 2026 elections. flag The ruling, based on the court’s lack of jurisdiction, preserves a plan drawn by a state judge after the Legislature failed to comply with voter-approved anti-gerrymandering rules. flag The new map concentrates Democratic voters in Salt Lake County into one district, increasing Democrats’ chances of winning at least one of Utah’s four Republican-held U.S. House seats. flag Republicans argue the court overstepped its authority, calling the outcome disruptive, while voting rights advocates praised the decision as a defense of fair representation. flag The map will remain in effect ahead of the upcoming election filing deadline.
