Washington3 Supreme Court orders this month keep Missouri on 2022 districts.
The 2025 map split Kansas City to unseat Democrat Emanuel Cleaver.
Missouri’s Supreme Court ruled the map cannot take effect before a referendum, and ballots on the 2022 lines are already mailed.
Missouri’s Republican attorney general says no ruling can now produce an orderly general election.
Voters choose on 3 November between Cleaver and state senator Rick Brattin on the old lines.
