New York’s Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul has signed into law a redistricting plan that dramatically shifts the state’s political alignment in favor of Democrats and could have a significant ripple effect in the upcoming midterm elections.
New York’s legislature approved the new congressional district maps Wednesday. They will expand Democrats’ power for years to come in a state where the party already holds a dominating advantage.
"Democrats are circumventing the will of the people," the New York GOP tweeted on Wednesday."They can’t win on the merits so they’re trying to win the election in a smoke-filled room rather than the ballot box." Governor Hochul's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News.
