This is huge! In a vote of 90-65, the Missouri House of Representatives has just passed their new Congressional map, which is expected to give Republicans an additional seat. It would cut Democrats down to only one seat in the Missouri House.

The new Congressional map comes amid a redistricting push in several states ahead of next year’s midterms. CNN noted: Missouri is the third state to press ahead with redistricting in recent weeks. President Donald Trump and his allies are hunting for opportunities to add more Republican-friendly districts in several states where the GOP has full control of state governments. They include Ohio — where a state law already requires legislators to draw new maps this year — as well as Florida, Indiana and South Carolina. Of course, it’s not a done deal yet. The new Missouri Congressional map is now headed to the Senate, where it is expected to pass. This could happen as soon as tomorrow. The New York Times reported: The proposed boundaries would favor Republicans in seven of Missouri’s eight districts, up from the six seats they currently hold. The new boundaries would splice Kansas City’s core into districts with large rural areas. “This is a better map,” said State Representative Dirk Deaton, a Republican who argued that it was well within the General Assembly’s authority to revisit district lines between censuses. He added that the new map “comports with every legal standard and every constitutional requirement.” The map must still be passed by the State Senate before being sent to the desk of Gov. Mike Kehoe, a Republican who called the special session to draw new boundaries. The measure is widely expected to advance because Missouri Democrats, diminished by years of election losses, have few legislative options to slow its passage. The State Senate could take up the legislation as early as Wednesday.
