The Supreme Court allowed Texas to use its newly drawn congressional map for the 2026 elections on Thursday, halting a lower court order that had tossed the map for next year’s election.

The high court granted a stay of the lower court order, 6-3, along ideological lines, with the unsigned majority alleging the lower court panel committed “at least two serious errors” in its ruling and finding the lower court violated the current normal rule of not altering “the election rules on the eve of an election.”
