New York Court Orders Re-Redistricting, Potentially Shifting House Balance

With the House majority hanging in the balance, both parties eagerly await decisions on congressional maps across the country.

  • New York's top court has ordered a re-redistricting that could net Democrats as many as six House seats, potentially shifting the balance of power in the House.
  • Democrats and Republicans are eagerly awaiting decisions on congressional maps across the country, with every district counting due to the slim margin in the House.
  • Several maps are still being litigated with less than a year until Election Day, including in states like Georgia and Louisiana.
  • Republicans currently hold the majority in the U.S. House of Representatives, but Democrats only need to net five seats to win control.
  • Redistricting decisions could significantly impact the 2024 elections, with the House majority hanging in the balance.
