The new division of Republican constituencies in the next year’s elections will allow you to get five new seats in Texas. They can maintain control in the US Congress.
The Texas Senators approved a new form of the election map in this American state on Saturday morning. The Republican Party will make it possible to get five new seats in Texas and can maintain control in the US Congress in the next year’s elections. According to AFP, TASR writes about it.
The law must now be approved by the governor
The Texas Senators voted after more than eight hours of debate according to the party line for approval of the map ratio of 18:11 on Saturday shortly after midnight. The plans of the democratic Senator Carol Alvarad for obstruction were thwarted when the Republicans used a rare procedural proposal to stop the debate, terminate obstruction and direct vote. The law is now heading to the Governor’s office for final approval.
President Donald Trump put pressure on Texas led by Republicans to create a new electoral map and prevent Democrats from taking power in the House of Representatives in 2026 in the middle of its term.
Changes of constituencies are a common political tactic in the US
This political maneuver has prompted California’s democratic Governor Gavin Newsom to launch the process of redrawing the electoral map of its state and the creation of five potentially new chairs for Democrats. Although News hopes to abolish the benefits of the Republicans in Texas, its plan requires the consent of voters in the election in November this year.
Both sides are now focusing on those states where local rules allow changes to the borders of the electoral districts in their favor. Fight for changes in constituencies. Gerrymandering is a political tactic in which the constituency boundaries are deliberately created to favor one political party or group of voters at the expense of others. This adds unstable and high -risk element to the next year’s elections.
If Democrats won, they will get the power to investigate Donald Trump
The Republicans are currently controlling both chambers of the congress, and the party’s legislators are largely operating to fulfill Trump’s wishes.
Assessed Democrats hope that the unpopularity of many Trump’s policies will help to start strengthening their position in the House of Representatives. It currently has 435 deputies based on the population of individual states. If the Democrats win, they will be able to investigate Trump and controversial members of his government.
