Summary
Missouris Supreme Court to hear arguments on controversial congressional map, potentially reshaping districts and threatening Democratic Rep. Emanuel Cleavers seat. The map, approved last summer, splits Kansas City into three Republican-friendly zones, carving out minority voters and using historic racial divides as district lines. Critics call it partisan gerrymandering, while GOP candidates argue striking it down would cause chaos. Three cases challenge the maps splits and a citizen referendum drive, with decisions expected by May 26th, potentially reverting to the old map, saving Cleavers path, or gutting Missouris referendum power.
