The Supreme Court gave Republicans a major victory Thursday by ruling that Texas can use its recently redrawn congressional redistricting map in the 2026 midterms, which could give Republicans another five seats in the red state.

The Supreme Court determined Thursday that Texas was likely to succeed on the "merits of its claim that the District Court committed at least two serious errors."
