2027–2028 United States redistricting

Common card · No. 370666

Beginning in May 2026, several U.S. states have considered redrawing their congressional districts ahead of the 2028 United States House of Representatives elections, as a follow up to the mid-decade redistricting that took place leading up to the 2026 elections. Discussions of redistricting ahead of 2028 began when the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Louisiana v. Callais was released on April 29, 2026, which limited challenges to gerrymandered maps using the Voting Rights Act of 1965, triggering Georgia Governor Brian Kemp to call a special session to redraw its congressional maps. In response, Democratic leaders urged state leaders in New York to redraw their own congressional map, which will require a constitutional amendment and a referendum held in 2027. Two states: Maryland and Missouri, will hold ballot measures in the 2026 midterm elections to determine whether new congressional maps will be adopted in 2028.
