JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — The fate of Missouri’s congressional maps remained in limbo Wednesday with time running short in the state’s annual legislative session.
Lawmakers must adjourn by 6 p.m. Friday. While the House on Monday approved a congressional map, talks in the Senate have been complicated by two St. Charles County senators. Without action by lawmakers, three federal judges will take over the task of redrawing the state’s eight congressional districts.
“Don’t have one,” Senate Majority Leader Caleb Rowden, R-Columbia, said Wednesday afternoon when asked for an update on the situation.
