As JD Vance traveled to Indiana today in an attempt to sell Donald Trump’s unpopular redistricting scheme, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement: 

“Republicans wrecked our economy and health care so badly, they know the only way they can win the next election is to cheat. Instead of addressing out-of-control utility bills and grocery prices; Trump and Vance would rather scam their way into holding their razor-thin majority. At the Indiana State Capitol today, voters showed up to make clear they will not accept Trump and Vance’s gerrymandering scheme. In Indiana and all across the country, Americans are fed up with Republicans’ disastrous agenda and are eager for change. Democrats will stand side by side with those voters until their voices are heard.” 

As JD Vance plotted with Indiana Republicans to rig the maps, Hoosiers gathered throughout the Indiana Statehouse to decry Republicans’ gerrymandering scheme. 

Adam Wren, Politico: Deafening boos echo through Indiana Statehouse as Vance meets with Braun and legislative leaders on redistricting.

Niki Kelly, Indiana Capital Chronicle: Lots of booing and chanting against VP Vance and Indiana Republicans considering redistricting.
