North Carolina Republicans announce plans to vote on new US House map amid nationwide redistricting battle
North Carolina GOP aims to shift from 10-4 to 11-3 in U.S. House seats by redrawing districts, targeting the competitive 1st District held by Democrat Don Davis.
- On Monday, North Carolina Republican legislative leaders announced a plan to vote next week to redraw the state's U.S. House district map aiming to secure another GOP seat.
- Amid a nationwide mid-decade battle, Republicans and Democrats vie over U.S. House maps aimed at advantage for the 2026 session, a news release said the move follows President Donald Trump's call.
- Don Davis's slim margin and the 1st District's swing status make it a GOP target, as he won last year by less than 2 percentage points and nearly 20 northeastern counties could shift.
- The move could shift the state's U.S. House balance as redrawing could alter the state's delegation and shape representation for next year, Republicans said.
- Across the country, Texas's map faces legal challenge while California's requires voter approval on Nov. 4 and Missouri confronts court challenges and an initiative petition.
