A handful of Republican state lawmakers in Indiana have come out against the Trump administration’s redistricting pressure campaign since President Trump sent his VP and a handful of White House officials to the state earlier this month. It was seen as an attempt to strong-arm Republican officials there into redrawing their congressional district maps — even though seven of Indiana’s nine U.S. House seats are already held by Republicans — as padding for Trump’s campaign to gerrymander/power grab his way towards keeping the GOP in control of the House in the midterms.
