Most people think 2026 = next 2 years. But whoever controls state legislatures after the 2030 census draws the maps that shape representation for the entire next decade. The NDRC is playing the long game in the fight for fair maps.

Everyone has had this boss... literally the worst person in any office.

Redistricting reform isn't one election or one lawsuit. It's recruiting candidates. Winning state legislatures. Passing ballot initiatives. Defending legal challenges. All before a single map is drawn. NDRC has been doing this work for years. We're not stopping now.

Welp, that’s a wrap on the Boston Red Sox best single month in history… LFG! www.bostonglobe.com/2026/08/01/s...

Red Sox finish off best month in franchise history with comeback win over the Dodgers - The Boston Globe

Ceddanne Rafaela hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh, Andruw Monasterio added a key two-run double later in the frame, and Brayan Bello tossed the final four innings to pick up his first win…

This timeline is just so dumb… 😑

Congress goes on recess in August, and your representatives head home. But thanks to gerrymandering, most of them represent safe seats. That means they don't have to worry much about what you think. Safe seats → low accountability. That's exactly what fair maps are designed to fix.

I miss the World Cup. That is all.

The 2026 midterms are about 3 months away. Every House seat. Every map. Every margin. NDRC is backing candidates who believe in fair representation — because rigged districts shouldn't decide who runs this country.

Gerrymandering 101: Politicians draw their own district lines, choosing their voters before voters choose them. That's why a state can be split 50-50 politically but represented 70-30 in Congress. It's not a bug. It's the design.

Every House seat is up in November. The maps deciding who wins were drawn by politicians — often specifically to guarantee one party's grip on power. This is the election where we fight to take those maps back.

Frustrated with Congress but feel powerless? Redistricting is where real power lives. Fair maps → fair elections → representatives who actually have to listen. Find out how to get involved: democraticredistricting.com

Let's be clear: Trump’s election lies are a shoddy cover for trying to subvert the 2026 midterms. Scared of facing accountability from Americans who are tired of his failures, he's escalating his attempts to corrupt the electoral process.

Quick question: Do you know who your congressional rep is? And do you think they'd still hold that seat if they had to run in a truly competitive district?

The only 2 logical logical explanations for Red Sox currently are: 1. The World Cup changed everything in Boston. #vibeshift - OR - 2. We are actively playing out the live action plot of Major League (1989). Chapman is clearly Wild Thing Vaughn…

Donald Trump has essentially admitted he can’t win a fair vote. But instead of changing his agenda, he’s doing everything in his power to overhaul the midterms. We’ve never seen this kind of shameless corruption.

One year ago, Trump called up Gov. Abbott in Texas and ordered a gerrymandered congressional map, kicking off 12 months of pure redistricting chaos. If you're still wondering what the hell happened, @marinakjenkins.bsky.social and I unpack it all on Drawing the Line: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaeC...

One Year of Trump’s Gerrymandering War

One year ago, Trump called Texas Governor Greg Abbott and demanded that Texas Republicans rig their congressional maps ahead of the midterm elections. They followed his orders without hesitation,…

RFK Jr. playing 5D chess… you can’t get vaccinated if you can never leave the bathroom.

The thing politicians in safe districts fear most isn't losing. It's having to compete. Fair maps create accountability. Accountability creates responsive government. Simple as that.

As of a few minutes ago, please join me in mourning the sudden loss of the 2+ games a day format. For a few weeks, we were kings and queens.

As he always does, he made everything good and fun about himself and ruined it for everyone.

The 2026 midterm maps are drawn. But fair representation is still worth fighting for. There are competitive districts across the country where your voice can make the difference. Who's running for Congress in your district? Do they support fair maps?

This Department of Justice has arrested more people for LOOKING at the reflecting pool (6) than they have people on the Epstein list (0). Let that sink in.

Courts across the country are getting away with tossing out the will of the voters. If we want to stop this assault on democracy, we need to elect judges who will actually defend fair representation.

What an extraordinary experience, from packing up my car 18 years ago and driving to North Carolina to witnessing the opening of this special museum commemorating the hope we all believed in then and continue to belong in now. #obama #obamalibrary #obamapresidentialcenter

Here's the stakes, in two numbers: analysts project Republicans could net up to 16 House seats this fall from redrawn maps alone. Democrats are positioned to net about 6. 🧵

I want to be clear, Republicans in Georgia didn’t have a democratic awakening - they saw results last night, saw the enthusiasm on the ground from YOU ALL & realized the redraw plan was insane. Instead, they likely plan to sneakily try this again in lame duck.. don’t be fooled.

I can personally confirm, first hand, that the Scots have taken over Boston and brought only happiness and joy. The bars… for sure, but we’ve also seen folks at breakfast, at the playgrounds with kids. It’s a jolt of fun everyone needed! What a gift this World Cup is!

Georgia is about to redraw its congressional map again — this time aimed at 2028. If you want to know the moment something changes in your state, sign up for our redistricting alerts by texting DEMOCRACY to 36787. We'll do the digging; you stay informed.
