Jackson County Judge Adam Caine upheld Missouris new Republican-drawn congressional map, ruling it meets compactness and contiguity requirements. The map, aiming to shift the Fifth Congressional District towards the GOP, has faced challenges but received support from Attorney General Catherine Hanaway. Challenger groups plan to appeal, arguing the map disregards compactness. The map splits five counties into seven parts, fewer than the previous plan. Democratic incumbent Emanuel Cleaver has filed for re-election, facing five Republicans in the August primary.
