A new Florida congressional map proposed by Governor Ron DeSantis has been approved by the Republican-led state legislature, setting up a likely advantage for Florida Republicans in November’s US elections.
The map, which sets voting boundaries for members of Congress, is projected to increase the number of Republicans representing Florida in the US House of Representatives to 20 from 16. Democrats stand to lose three House seats, going from 11 to eight, political analysts have said.
Democrats protested the new congressional map as a product of intentional partisan “gerrymandering” that will make it more difficult for Black candidates to run for office.
