North Carolina GOP sets vote on new House map
North Carolina Republican legislative leaders said Oct. 13, 2025 they will vote next week to redraw the state’s U.S. House districts, seeking to lock in an additional GOP seat by potentially reshaping NC‑1, currently held by Democrat Don Davis. The move, which follows a GOP map that yielded a 10–4 Republican advantage in 2024, comes amid a broader mid‑cycle redistricting fight sparked by President Trump’s calls, with Texas, California and Missouri also advancing partisan maps facing varying legal and ballot hurdles.
