Tennessee GOP redraws maps, targets Memphis seat
Description
Tennessee Republicans plan a special session to redraw congressional maps, aiming to split Memphis and secure a Republican seat. This move, backed by Trump and the Supreme Court, faces opposition from Democrats who see it as an attack on Black voters and democracy. Some Republicans prefer focusing on grocery taxes and gun rights, while others view redistricting as crucial to maintaining Tennessees red wave. With eight of nine seats already Republican, this could eliminate the last Democratic holdout, sparking protests and legal challenges.
