The Redistricting War Has Just Begun
The redistricting war of 2026, which had appeared to conclude in a stalemate between Democrats and Republicans after Florida’s special session, is anyone’s to win.
In the wake of the Louisiana v. Callais ruling, Republicans in the South are on the move, ready to redraw maps the courts had previously blocked efforts to change.
The outcome of the renewed tit-for-tat redistricting war could determine which party controls the House of Representatives in 2026.
The Southern Scramble
Republican Gov. Jeff Landry of Louisiana has already signed an executive order calling off the state’s May 16 House primaries to allow for redrawing the state’s map, declared a racial gerrymander by the high court.
Louisiana has two Democrat-held districts, held by Reps. Troy Carter and Cleo Fields.
Tennessee Republican Gov. Bill Lee has also called a special session to redistrict after the ruling. Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tenn. is the only Democrat U.S. House member from the Volunteer State.
