In Indiana, Republican lawmakers have unveiled a new voting map that’s designed to hand their party all nine of Indiana’s seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. The new map would divide districts in Indianapolis and the Chicago suburbs that have consistently voted for Democrats and are home to Indiana’s largest concentrations of nonwhite voters. Indiana Democrats blasted the maps as “racially gerrymandered” and introduced a bill seeking to ban mid-decade redistricting. This comes amid Republican efforts to redraw maps in Texas, Missouri, Utah, Ohio, North Carolina and elsewhere; meanwhile, some Democratic-controlled states, led by California, are moving to redistrict congressional maps in favor of Democrats.
