Indiana Senate Republicans Reject Trump’s Redistricting Effort

 Indiana Senate Republicans Reject Trump’s Redistricting Effort - The New York Times

Republicans hold an overwhelming majority in the Indiana Senate, but more than a dozen of them defied the president’s wishes, voting against a map aimed at adding Republicans in Congress.

The 19 to 31 vote was a highly public defeat for Mr. Trump, who has spent significant political capital pushing for redrawn maps in Republican-led states and who repeatedly threatened political consequences for Indiana Republicans who did not fall in line.
