Summary
President Donald Trump signaled he was planning to keep up his redistricting war on Thursday — this time in Tennessee. Trump posted on his Truth Social platform and indicated he aimed to gain an additional Republican seat in the House in a new map that would favor Republicans. "I had a very good conversation with Governor Bill Lee, of Tennessee, this morning, wherein he stated that he would work hard to correct the unconstitutional flaw in the Congressional Maps of the Great State of Tennessee," Trump wrote. "Likewise, all of the other Political Representatives of Tennessee have promised to do so. This should give us one extra seat, and help Save our Country from the Radical Left Democrats, and their Country destroying Policies of High Tax, Open Borders, Transgender Mutilization, Defunding the Police, ICE, and Border Patrol, No Voter ID, Soft on Crime, and so much more. Thank you Governor Lee — PUSH HARD!"The Supreme Court decision on Wednesday to strike down a key provision of the Voting Rights Act prompted Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) to redraw its U.S. House map and eliminate its only Democratic-held district, according to the Tennessee Lookout.
