ABC News quotes Shawn Donahue in an article about the congressional redistricting battle started by Texas Republicans. “Initially, it looked pretty good for Republicans to gain some seats,” Donahue said. Democrats in several states responded by drawing their own maps to benefits their party. “Maybe there is still a chance to gain some seats but Democrats could come out ahead,” Donahue said. “There’s still a lot of uncertainty going into 2026.”
