The Indiana Senate on Dec. 11 rejected a bill that would revise the state’s electoral district boundaries for elections to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2026, dealing a blow to efforts backed by President Donald Trump to obtain more seats for Republicans in that body.

The bill failed by a vote of 19–31. Twenty-one Republicans joined all 10 Democrats to defeat the measure.
