QUESTION OF THE DAY: Should Missouri Republicans try to redraw our congressional map?
Matthew Sanders
President Donald Trump is targeting certain states in a bid to get enough of a Republican majority in the U.S. House to make it easier to pass his agenda.
Among the states he is eyeing is Missouri, according to Third District Rep. Bob Onder, whose district covers a good chunk of Mid-Missouri. The Republicans who support the idea say Missouri is a conservative state and should have a more conservative delegation.
However, critics point out that the lines were just redrawn after the last census, as required by law. Doing it again would be unfair play, and might not stand up.
What do you think? Should the legislature give it a shot? Let us know by voting in the poll.
