Thursday's ruling is a major win for Republicans.

The U.S. Supreme Court revived on Thursday a redrawn Texas electoral map designed to add more Republicans to the U.S. House of Representatives.

The electoral map could boost the Republican effort to shore up their majority in the coming 2026 midterm elections.

The Texas congressional map enacted last summer at Trump’s urging was engineered to give Republicans five additional House seats.

The new Texas map, backed by Donald Trump, has led to similar efforts for partisan redistricting across the US.

The conservative-leaning Supreme Court on Thursday permitted Texas to use new congressional maps in the next midterm elections that were redrawn to favor the Republican Party.
