Texas did the right thing, Indiana did not, The Indiana Senate voted down a new map pushed by President Trump that would have created two more House seats.

Indiana, is solid red state, and the GOP currently holds seven of Indiana's nine U.S. House seats. The districts of the two Democratic Reps. would have been eliminated.

The final vote was 31-19, with 21 Republicans joining 10 Democrats in voting against the new map.
