据决策台总部（DDHQ）预测，密苏里州一项旨在制定对共和党更有利的众议院选区划分方案的公投措施预计将失败，这对民主党来说是一场重大胜利。
A ballot measure that looks to enact a more Republican-friendly House map in Missouri is projected to fail, delivering a major win for Democrats, according to Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ).
选民否决了这项名为“A号提案”的公投措施。该提案原本将允许州议员在下次美国人口普查前通过一套新的国会选区划分方案，从而削弱民主党众议员伊曼纽尔·克利弗（密苏里州）以堪萨斯城为基地的选区，并给共和党带来一个新的众议院席位翻盘机会。
Voters rejected the ballot measure, known as Proposition A, which would have allowed lawmakers to pass a new set of congressional lines ahead of the next U.S. census that would have weakened Rep. Emanuel Cleaver’s (D-Mo.) Kansas City-based district and given Republicans a new House pickup opportunity.
预测显示，该提案将以两位数的差距失败。周三凌晨仅统计了15%的选票时，反对该措施的比例已超过60%。
The proposition is projected to fail by double digits, with over 60 percent opposing the measure with just 15 percent of the vote reported early Wednesday morning.
共和党目前在密苏里州国会代表团中以6比2占优，但新选区地图将在2028年后带来一个共和党占优的7比1众议院代表团。民主党众议员韦斯利·贝尔（密苏里州）位于圣路易斯地区的众议院席位将成为唯一的民主党选区。
The GOP has a 6-2 edge in Missouri’s congressional delegation, but the new map would usher in a 7-1 Republican-favored House delegation after 2028. Rep. Wesley Bell’s (D-Mo.) St. Louis-area House seat would be the lone Democratic district.
新选区划分方案未能通过，意味着密苏里州将在未来几个选举周期中沿用与近期相同的选区。
The failed passage of the new district lines means that Missouri will operate under the same districts it had in recent past cycles.
密苏里州一直是共和党州与民主党州之间全国性选区重划之争的焦点。随着共和党为竞争激烈的中期选举环境做准备，特朗普总统和全国共和党人鼓励得克萨斯州和密苏里州等州的共和党议员重新绘制选区地图，为本党创造新的翻盘机会。
Missouri has served as ground zero for a national redistricting saga that’s played out between Republican and Democratic states. President Trump and national Republicans encouraged GOP lawmakers in states like Texas and Missouri to redraw their maps to create new pickup opportunities for their party as Republicans braced for a competitive midterm environment.
其他州的民主党人也做出了类似回应，但他们仅在2026年选举前成功在加利福尼亚州制定了新的选区地图。
Democrats in other states responded in kind, though they were only successful at creating new maps in California ahead of the 2026 elections.
密苏里州的争斗尤为激烈，围绕新众议院地图能否在11月前及时生效存在诉讼。一个联盟试图将新的国会选区划分方案付诸公投，从而推迟了该众议院地图的立即实施。
The battle in Missouri was particularly fierce amid litigation over whether the new House maps could be enacted in time for November as a coalition looked to put the new congressional lines to a referendum, stalling the House map’s immediate implementation.
该州最高法院由共和党州长任命的法官占多数，于9月裁定，有利于共和党的选区划分方案在选民于11月就新选区界线进行表决前，不能立即生效。该诉讼多次上诉至联邦最高法院，但对共和党而言均以失败告终。
The state’s high court, made up of a majority of appointees by Republican governors, ruled in September that the GOP-favorable map could not immediately go into effect until voters weighed in on the new lines in November. The litigation made it all the way up to the Supreme Court several times but to no avail for the GOP.
