【Key Focus: With the U.S. Midterm Elections Approaching, Republicans Have Redrawn Indianapolis Into Four Districts】
On December 1, 2025, Washington time, the Associated Press wrote in a press release:
On Monday morning, Indiana House Republicans released a draft map that outlined new boundaries aimed at removing the state's two Democratic federal representatives. The city of Indianapolis will be divided into four congressional districts, which is a significant change from the current map (the city has always been part of the 7th district, which consistently supports Democrats).
Another existing Democratic district in Indiana is located in the northwest corner of the state, near Chicago. The new map will merge most of the Republican counties in northern Indiana with East Chicago and Gary to form the new First Congressional District.
Indiana lawmakers have been under increasing pressure from the White House to redraw districts, similar to what Republicans in Texas, Ohio, and North Carolina have done. In order to counteract the growth of Republicans, Democrats in California and Virginia have also taken similar measures.
