Dem governors call for redistricting amid Texas push

Multiple Democratic governors are supportive of their colleagues' interests in redrawing their state’s Congressional maps to benefit Democratic Party candidates ahead of the 2026 midterms, responding to a push from President Trump and others to draw new lines in Texas to be more favorable to GOP candidates. 

Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly (D) said she is supportive of California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) and other Democratic governors who have shown openness to altering district maps to benefit Democratic candidates next year.
