Supreme Court denies Missouri's new congressional map for elections

In the U.S., the Supreme Court denied Missouri's appeal to use a new congressional map for the November elections on September 8, 2026. This decision followed a ruling by the Missouri Supreme Court that required voter approval for the new map, which had been used in the state's recent primaries. The legal dispute has raised concerns about voter confusion and the implications of redistricting efforts in the lead-up to elections.
