Tim Weber discusses the controversial redistricting process in Missouri, emphasizing its importance despite its dry subject matter. He explains that the U.S. conducts a census every 10 years to redraw congressional and legislative districts, reflecting population changes. Missouri, a deeply Republican state, is redrawing its districts to secure an additional congressional seat, a move driven by President Trump's request. Weber argues that the new maps accurately represent the state's shifting demographics and are a fair reflection of the state's political leanings. He acknowledges the risks and the political nature of the process but supports the new maps as a more accurate representation of Missouri's current political landscape.Subscribe to Mid Rivers Newsmagazine!Join Our NewsletterFacebook | Instagram
