Indiana Republicans defy Trump to reject new voting map
Published: 12/12/2025

Indiana Republicans defy Trump's push for a voting map favoring their party in the midterms, as 21 Republicans in the Senate and all 10 Democrats vote against the redistricting plan. The rejection comes amid nationwide gerrymandering battles, with states like Texas and California leading the way. Republican Senator Spencer Deery opposes mid-cycle gerrymandering, stating it goes against conservative principles, while Governor Mike Braun expresses disappointment and plans to challenge those not representing Hoosiers' interests.
