Republican Rep. David Schweikert has successfully defended his seat in Arizona's 1st Congressional District against Democratic challenger Amish Shah, according to projections by the Associated Press. This race was closely watched as Democrats aimed to flip the district, which Schweikert narrowly won in 2022. Schweikert, who has served in the House since 2010, focused on economic policy and fiscal responsibility during his campaign. Arizona remains a key battleground with multiple tight races in the current election cycle.

"Wisconsin Supreme Court Stands Firm on Congressional Map Decision"

The Wisconsin Supreme Court rejected a Democratic request to reconsider the state's congressional maps for the 2024 election, ensuring that the current district boundaries will remain in place. This decision comes after Democrats successfully changed legislative boundaries last month. The court's rejection was based on the new majority's stance on rebalancing political power in the state, with conservative Justice Rebecca Bradley expressing concerns about the court's independence and integrity. The rejection means that Wisconsin's current congressional district boundaries, drawn by Governor Evers, will stand for the upcoming election, with Republicans holding six of the state's eight House seats.
