INDIANAPOLIS (WXIN) – Officials with Indiana Senate Republicans told Nexstar's WXIN that there aren't enough votes at this time to move forward with redistricting efforts.

The statement, provided Wednesday by the Senate Majority's Communications Office, simply stated that "the votes aren't there for redistricting."

Indiana Gov. Mike Braun, a Republican, commented on the recent redistricting talks from Indiana Senate Republicans, stating that while there aren't currently enough votes to begin the process, they are "getting very close."

"It's going to happen soon if we're going to do it," Braun said on Wednesday. "There's been a lot of jawboning from the White House with senators, especially, so we're getting close."
