Indiana state Senate rejects redistricting bill despite Trump’s pressure

The Indiana state Senate rejected Trump’s proposed redistricting map, despite a strong Republican majority, signaling potential party fractures. Trump expressed disappointment and threatened support for a primary challenge against Senate president Rodric Bray. The rejected map aimed to secure all nine congressional seats for Republicans, part of a broader effort to maintain GOP control in Congress. Despite Trump’s efforts to sway the vote, 21 Republican state Senators, including Bray, voted against the bill, dealing a setback to the administration’s nationwide redistricting campaign.
