The Republican-controlled Indiana House of Representatives on Friday approved a hand-picked new congressional map, as expected.
Trump’s sweeping nationwide gerrymandering blitz — which he has been pushing in red states for months now to try to ensure Republicans maintain control of the House of Representatives in the 2026 midterm elections — appears to be running out of steam, making the fate of Indiana’s map particularly important to the Trump administration.
Although the Supreme Court on Thursday stayed a lower court ruling that blocked Texas’ gerrymandered map, other redistricting efforts in Republican-led states have faced challenges. More recently, Republican plans to create new three-dimensional maps were abandoned in Utah and Kansas.
“I’m glad to hear that the Indiana House is stepping up to do the right thing, and I hope the Senate finds the votes,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social article last month. “If they do, I will make sure everyone who supports me wins their primaries and rises to greatness, but, if they don’t, I will partner with incredibly powerful MAGA grassroots Republicans to elect STRONG Republicans who are willing to do what’s necessary to protect our country and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Amid uncertainty over whether there will be votes for redistricting in the state Senate, Trump has continued to bully Indiana Republicans into supporting his gerrymandering blitz in their state. He also pledged to support his primary opponents against anyone who opposes staging his nationwide pressure campaign in Indiana.

“The issue of redrawing Indiana’s congressional maps mid-cycle has received a lot of attention and is causing conflict here in our state. To resolve this issue, the Senate intends to reconvene in the 2026 regular session on Dec. 8 and make a final decision that week on any redistricting proposals sent by the House,” Bray said in a statement last week.

The new map, which was unveiled Monday, is designed so that it could flip two of the state’s congressional seats currently held by Democrats to Republicans in the upcoming midterms if it passes the state Senate later this month.
