The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected a new congressional map backed by President Donald Trump for Missouri's November election. Missouri's chief election official says he has directed local authorities to instead use districts passed in 2022, following a legal battle that lasted nearly a year. The decision could change candidate choices for over a million voters. Missouri's top court had ordered the use of the 2022 districts, but Secretary of State Denny Hoskins initially followed a federal judge's order to use the Trump-backed map. The court's decision ends uncertainty over the districts, which had been redrawn to help Republicans gain an additional seat.
