Democrats are taking the fight over future House maps down ballot, with the super PAC Forward Majority planning to spend $30 million on two dozen state legislative races this year. Why it matters: They're betting that as few as eight statehouse races could help determine who controls redistricting for six U.S. House seats ahead of 2028.

Zoom out: Republicans plan to pad their numbers in states like Georgia and Mississippi ahead of 2028. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is preparing to respond by squeezing more Democratic-friendly seats from blue states.But both parties need the same thing to become creative cartographers: control of the state House, state Senate and governor's mansion.That is especially important ahead of the 2030 census, when all 50 states will redraw their lines. The intrigue: Forward Majority predicts that eight races in five states — Arizona, Michigan, M
