Missouri GOP Redistricting Plan Targets Cleaver’s Seat
Description
The Missouri House voted 90-65 to approve a GOP-drawn congressional map designed to eliminate a Democratic seat by splitting Rep. Emanuel Cleaver’s Kansas City district. Backed by Gov. Mike Kehoe, the plan merges parts of Kansas City with heavily Republican rural areas. Cleaver vowed to challenge the map in court, while critics are weighing a statewide referendum. Missouri joins Texas, Ohio, and Florida in Republican-led redistricting efforts that could shift the balance of power in Congress.
