## Resource

Democrats in disarray as Republicans gain ground in the House race for 2026. Recent court rulings favor the GOP, allowing them to redraw lines in the South and potentially add four more districts in Florida. Democrats, who had been pushing aggressive map changes, are now forced to defend instead of expand, with strategists admitting it could drain their resources. Analysts predict these moves could lock in Republican advantages for years, turning what looked like a Democrat wave into a competitive race.
