tx redistricting scaled
Texas has long been one of the least democratic states in the US, a place where voting rights are frequently under attack and electoral districts are manipulated for political gain. In August 2025, Texas Republicans passed a law to create new electoral maps that seek to eliminate five Democratic-held seats in the US House.

Our coverage here looks at the who, what, when, where, why, and what’s next on all things redistricting.
