Latest News
John Day is in the news mainly because redistricting fights and Supreme Court voting-rights rulings are reshaping the 2026 House landscape. Recent court decisions that weakened parts of the Voting Rights Act and struck down a Louisiana majority-Black district could affect maps in Louisiana and other states, including Texas, and may help Republicans in the battle for House control.
