本周，美国南部掀起国会选区重划热潮。此前，最高法院的保守派多数票推翻了《投票权法案》的一项关键保护条款，促使共和党人加紧努力，在今年中期选举前重新绘制美国众议院选区地图。
路易斯安那州、阿拉巴马州和田纳西州是这场持续近一年的选区重划大战的最新战场，这场大战的双方是唐纳德·特朗普总统与共和党人和民主党人。最新的交锋中可能多达12个席位会受到影响。
共和党人正在中期选举中捍卫其微弱的众议院多数席位，这场选区重划对决的关键在于，哪个政党将在特朗普第二任白宫任期的最后两年控制众议院。
所有人的目光都集中在路易斯安那州，该州的国会选区地图被最高法院裁定违宪。大法官们裁定，种族不应决定立法选区地图的重划，重塑了1965年标志性的《投票权法案》。

最高法院周一裁定，其宣布路易斯安那州地图违宪的决定应立即生效，这与往常等待约一个月后意见正式生效的程序不同。
这为共和党控制的州议会最早于本周启动重划地图的程序扫清了道路。上周，共和党州长杰夫·兰德里在最高法院裁决后立即推迟了本月的美国众议院初选。
兰德里辩称，他的行政命令“确保我们维护法治，同时给予州议会足够时间通过公平且合法的国会选区地图”。
路易斯安那州共和党人旨在取消两个黑人选区中的一个或两个，这两个席位目前由民主党人担任。
但民主党人提起的诉讼旨在阻止路易斯安那州共和党人重划地图的努力。
阿拉巴马州议会的议员们周一开始开会，讨论重划选区事宜，该州两党议会均由共和党占据超多数席位。此举可能导致该州两个倾向民主党的美国众议院选区中的一个或两个被取消。
共和党州长凯·艾维召集了特别议会。

但阿拉巴马州议员通过的任何新地图都需要得到最高法院的批准。这是因为目前最高法院禁止阿拉巴马州在2030年前进行选区重划。目前尚不清楚法院是否会解除禁令。
田纳西州议员将于周二开始召开特别会议，制定新的国会选区地图，可能取消该州唯一由民主党控制的席位。
共和党州长比尔·李上周在最高法院裁决后与特朗普进行了交谈。在特朗普在社交媒体帖子中表示李“会努力”重划田纳西州的地图数小时后，州长召集了特别会议。
“我们有责任向田纳西州民众保证，我们的国会选区准确反映了田纳西州选民的意愿，”州长在一份声明中写道。

南卡罗来纳州似乎不太可能与路易斯安那州、阿拉巴马州和田纳西州一起，在中期选举前及时实施选区重划。
南卡罗来纳州共和党州长亨利·麦克马斯特的一名高级助手向福克斯新闻数字频道证实，共和党控制的该州极不可能通过国会选区重划法案。“我们预计州长不会召集特别会议，”麦克马斯特的发言人米歇尔·勒克莱尔说。
资深众议员吉姆·克莱伯恩是南卡罗来纳州7人众议院代表团中唯一的民主党人。
佐治亚州共和党州长布莱恩·坎普上周末表示，最高法院的裁决不会影响佐治亚州今年的选举，但选区重划改革将在2028年选举前推进。佐治亚州的初选将在两周后举行。
但特朗普敦促共和党各州采取行动，无论它们是否因即将到来的初选而面临时间紧迫的问题。
“我们应该要求州议会按照最高法院的要求行事，”总统上周末在社交媒体帖子中写道。“这将帮助我们赢得选举！”
与此同时，佛罗里达州共和党州长罗恩·德桑蒂斯周一签署了州议会上周通过的一项法案，重划这个倾向共和党的州的国会选区地图，通过取消目前由民主党控制的选区，增加了4个更倾向共和党的席位。
目前共和党在佛罗里达州的美国众议院代表团中以20比8的优势占据多数。

德桑蒂斯签署法案的两周前，弗吉尼亚州选民勉强通过了一项公投，如果该公投扫清法律障碍，将使该州由民主党控制的议会——而非目前的无党派委员会——在2030年选举前拥有临时选区重划权。这可能使民主党在弗吉尼亚州国会代表团中的优势从目前的6比5扩大到10比1。
但弗吉尼亚州最高法院尚未就三起质疑新地图的案件作出裁决。
为防止其第一任白宫任期内发生的情况——民主党在2018年中期选举中夺回众议院多数席位，特朗普去年春天首次提出了罕见但并非闻所未闻的中期国会选区重划计划。
其目标很简单：在红色州重划国会选区地图，以巩固共和党脆弱的众议院多数席位，在本届中期选举中保住众议院控制权，因为在野党通常会在中期选举中面临政治逆风并丢失席位。
去年夏天，当被记者问及他在全国范围内增加倾向共和党的众议院席位的计划时，总统说：“得克萨斯州将是最大的赢家。而且会增加五个席位。”

得克萨斯州共和党州长格雷格·阿博特召集了由共和党主导的州议会特别会议，以通过新的地图。
但民主党州议员连续两周缺席议会会议，逃离得克萨斯州以推迟重划选区法案的通过，这激发了全国民主党人的斗志。
领导反对特朗普重划选区行动的人士包括加利福尼亚州民主党州长加文·纽瑟姆。
去年11月，加利福尼亚州选民以压倒性优势通过了50号提案，该投票倡议暂时搁置了该州倾向左翼的无党派选区重划委员会，并将绘制国会地图的权力交还给由民主党主导的州议会。
预计这将在加利福尼亚州增加5个更倾向民主党的国会选区，以对抗得克萨斯州重划地图的举动。
这场斗争迅速蔓延到得克萨斯州和加利福尼亚州之外。
密苏里州、俄亥俄州以及共和党主导议会的摇摆州北卡罗来纳州的共和党人已根据特朗普的推动制定了新的地图。

但对共和党人来说也有打击：犹他州一名地区法官去年年底否决了该州由共和党主导的议会绘制的国会选区地图，转而批准了一份备选方案，将在中期选举前创建一个倾向民主党的选区。
去年12月，印第安纳州参议院的共和党人违抗特朗普，否决了州众议院通过的重划选区法案。

A congressional redistricting frenzy is sweeping across the South this week, after the Supreme Court’s conservative majority last week slashed a key Voting Rights Act protection, triggering new efforts by Republicans to quickly rewrite U.S. House district maps ahead of this year’s midterm elections.
Louisiana, Alabama and Tennessee are the latest battlegrounds in a nearly year-long redistricting war pitting President Donald Trump and Republicans against Democrats. And as many as a dozen seats may be in play in the latest skirmishes.
With the GOP defending its razor-thin House majority in the midterms, at stake in this redistricting showdown is which party will control the House during the final two years of Trump’s second term in the White House.
All eyes are on Louisiana, which was the state whose congressional district map was ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. The justices reshaped the landmark 1965 Voting Rights Act by ruling that race should not dictate the redrawing of legislative district maps.

The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that its decision declaring Louisiana’s map unconstitutional should go into effect immediately, breaking with its usual procedure of waiting roughly a month before its opinions become official.
That clears the way for the GOP-controlled state legislature to begin the process of redrawing the map as early as this week. Last week, Republican Gov. Jeff Landry, in the immediate aftermath of the high court’s ruling, delayed this month’s U.S. House primary elections.
Landry argued his executive order “ensures we uphold the rule of law while giving the Legislature the time it needs to pass a fair and lawful congressional map.”
Louisiana Republicans are aiming to erase one or both of the two Black-majority House seats, which are represented by Democrats.
But lawsuits filed by Democrats aim to block the push by Louisiana Republicans to redraw the maps.
Lawmakers in the Alabama legislature, where the GOP holds a supermajority in both chambers, began meeting on Monday to work on redistricting that may result in eliminating one or both of the state’s two blue-leaning U.S. House districts.
The special session was called by Republican Gov. Kay Ivey.

But any new map passed by Alabama lawmakers will need to be greenlit by the Supreme Court. That’s because Alabama is currently prohibited by the high court from redistricting until 2030. It’s unclear if the court will lift its injunction.
Tennessee lawmakers begin meeting in a special session starting Tuesday to put together a new congressional district map that may erase the state’s only Democratic-controlled seat.
Republican Gov. Bill Lee spoke with Trump last week in the wake of the Supreme Court ruling. Hours after the president said in a social media post that Lee “would work hard” to redraw Tennessee’s map, the governor called the special session.
“We owe it to Tennesseans to ensure our congressional districts accurately reflect the will of Tennessee voters,” the governor wrote in a statement.

It appears unlikely South Carolina will join Louisiana, Alabama and Tennessee in implementing redistricting in time for the midterms.
A top aide to Republican Gov. Henry McMaster of South Carolina confirmed to Fox News Digital that it’s very unlikely the GOP-controlled state will enact congressional redistricting. “We do not anticipate the Governor calling a special session,” McMaster spokeswoman Michelle LeClair said.
Longtime Rep. Jim Clyburn is the only Democrat in South Carolina’s seven-person House delegation.
Republican Gov. Brian Kemp of Georgia said late last week that the Supreme Court’s ruling won’t impact elections this year in Georgia, but that redistricting changes would come before the 2028 elections. Georgia holds its primary in two weeks.
But Trump is urging GOP states to take action regardless of whether they face time crunches due to upcoming primaries.
“We should demand that State Legislatures do what the Supreme Court says must be done,” the president wrote this past weekend in a social media post. “This is going to help us win elections!”
Meanwhile, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday signed a bill passed last week by the GOP-dominated state legislature that redraws the red-leaning state’s congressional districts, adding four more right-leaning seats by eliminating districts currently controlled by Democrats.
Republicans currently control Florida’s U.S. House delegation by a 20-8 margin.
DESANTIS SIGNS INTO LAW NEW CONGRESSIONAL MAP CREATING MORE RIGHT-LEANING SEATS IN FLORIDA

Ocner/Miami Herald/Tribune News Service)
The DeSantis bill signing came two weeks after voters in Virginia narrowly passed a referendum that, if it clears legal hurdles, will give the state’s Democratic-controlled legislature — rather than the current nonpartisan commission — temporary redistricting power through the 2030 election. It could result in a 10-1 advantage for Democrats in Virginia’s congressional delegation, up from their current 6-5 edge.
But Virginia’s Supreme Court has yet to rule on a trio of cases contesting the new map.
Aiming to prevent what happened during his first term in the White House when Democrats reclaimed the House majority in the 2018 midterms, Trump last spring first floated the idea of rare, but not unheard of, mid-decade congressional redistricting.
The mission was simple: redraw congressional district maps in red states to pad the GOP’s fragile House majority to keep control of the chamber in the midterms, when the party in power traditionally faces political headwinds and loses seats.
When asked by reporters last summer about his plan to add Republican-leaning House seats across the country, the president said, “Texas will be the biggest one. And that’ll be five.”

Republican Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas called a special session of the GOP-dominated state legislature to pass the new map.
But Democratic state lawmakers, who broke quorum for two weeks as they fled Texas in a bid to delay the passage of the redistricting bill, energized Democrats across the country.
Among those leading the fight against Trump’s redistricting was Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom of California.
California voters in November overwhelmingly passed Proposition 50, a ballot initiative that temporarily sidetracked the left-leaning state’s nonpartisan redistricting commission and returned the power to draw the congressional maps to the Democratic-dominated legislature.
That is expected to result in five more Democratic-leaning congressional districts in California, which aimed to counter the move by Texas to redraw their maps.
The fight quickly spread beyond Texas and California.
Republican-controlled Missouri and Ohio and swing state North Carolina, where the GOP dominates the legislature, have drawn new maps as part of the president’s push.

But in blows to Republicans, a Utah district judge late last year rejected a congressional district map drawn by the state’s GOP-dominated legislature and instead approved an alternate that will create a Democratic-leaning district ahead of the midterms.
And Republicans in Indiana’s Senate in December defied Trump, shooting down a redistricting bill that had passed the state House.
