Justice Brett Kavanaugh on Tuesday denied Missouri’s emergency appeal without comment, leaving in place the Missouri Supreme Court’s ruling blocking the state’s revised Republican-backed congressional map from being used in November’s general election. Kavanaugh acted alone and did not refer the application to the full Supreme Court.The decision means Missouri will conduct the general election using its 2022 congressional districts after the state high court ruled the newer map never legally took effect because a voter-backed referendum suspended the law before it could go into effect.This is a developing story.
