Missouri Votes on Redistricting | St. Louis News

Missouri’s Supreme Court is racing against time to decide if voters can decide congressional district maps — a move that could reshape redistricting power in the Show-Me State. After lawmakers redrawn districts last year, “People Not Politicians” argues citizens deserve a referendum under the state constitution. While the court already upheld the map’s legality, the real battle is over whether voters should get to vote on it before November’s ballot deadline. Proponents say democracy demands public input; opponents, led by the Secretary of State, warn it could confuse voters and undermine trust in elections. With the clock ticking toward September 8th, the court’s ruling could set a historic precedent for how power is balanced between legislatures and the people.
