Texas
If the Texas legislature and a coalition of minority groups cannot reach a compromise on temporary redistricting maps by Feb. 6, the state’s April 3 primary could be pushed into May or even later, The Associated Press reports. As a result, Texas will likely not have any influence in the selection of the Republican presidential nominee. This is the fourth straight decade that Texas has seen its redistricting maps contested in court. Minority groups say that the proposed lines are racially discriminatory.
