Vice President J.D. Vance has called on Republicans to take decisive and aggressive action in redistricting efforts nationwide to counter what he describes as Democratic gerrymandering in blue states. Vance argues that Democrats have manipulated congressional apportionment through policies such as open borders and census counting errors admitted in 2022, resulting in unfair advantages in redistricting. He emphasized that Republicans need to embrace redistricting as the primary means to address these issues ahead of the midterm elections. Vance highlighted that states like California have more House seats than warranted due to high populations of undocumented immigrants. He also stated that Democrats have pushed gerrymandering to its limits in blue states, leaving little room for further manipulation. Vance’s comments were made in multiple interviews and appearances, including on Fox News’ Sunday Futures, where he urged the GOP to match the Democrats' level of aggressiveness in redistricting battles. His remarks frame the GOP-led redistricting push as a necessary response to what he terms a rigged system favoring Democrats.
