Missouri Officials Face Scrutiny Over Gerrymandering and Redistricting Delays
Originally Published 2 days ago — by Missouri Independent
Missouri Secretary of State Denny Hoskins admitted to writing a flawed and potentially prejudicial ballot summary for a referendum on redistricting, leading to a court case that may result in revisions. The controversy centers on the language used to describe the state's gerrymandered congressional map, with objections from a political action committee, People Not Politicians, who argue the summary is misleading and unfair. The case is ongoing, with a new hearing scheduled for February 9, amid broader legal disputes related to the redistricting process.
