Supreme Court urged to let states regulate sports bets on prediction

๐Ÿฟ๏ธ The Squirrel's Take
This ruling shows that even in a red state, courts can still stand up to partisan gerrymandering when the law is clear.
๐Ÿ’ก Why it matters
The decision could shift the balance of power in the House, as Republicans lose a potential pickup seat in a closely divided chamber.

The Missouri Supreme Court unanimously blocked new congressional districts backed by Donald Trump from being used in the November election, ordering a statewide vote on the map. The decision is a setback for Republicans hoping to gain an additional House seat in the midterms.
