- 概要
- 争议焦点为密苏里州美国国会众议院选区的争议地图
- 共和党制定的地图取消了一个民主党占据的选区
- 密苏里州最高法院暂缓使用新地图，等待全民公投
- 这场争议发生在11月中期选举数周前
9月25日（路透社）——美国最高法院第三次介入密苏里州国会选区划分的激烈争议，于周五否决该州在11月选举中使用旨在偏袒共和党的重划国会选区地图，这对共和党而言是一次挫折，该政党正努力维持其对国会的控制权。
大法官们批准了包括“人民而非政客”组织在内的地图反对者的请求，暂停了下级法院的裁决——这些裁决曾要求在11月3日的中期选举中使用重新划定的美国众议院选区边界。

这场在州法院和联邦法院均有涉及的争议引发了多份相互矛盾的法院裁决，使得密苏里州众议院选区陷入不确定状态，法律纠纷不断上诉至美国最高法院。密苏里州的缺席投票已经开始。
“在如今这个临近选举的节点，下令恢复使用2025年版地图将会引发选举混乱，”最高法院在一份未署名的四页裁决书中表示。
该裁决补充道，鉴于最高法院此前两次介入，最新的命令“并不令人意外”。没有大法官公开对该裁决表示异议。
最高法院的最新行动之前，位于圣路易斯的美国第八巡回上诉法院于周一裁定，共和党制定的地图必须使用——尽管最高法院已于9月10日否决了该地图，当时的裁决被认为已经了结此事。

第八巡回上诉法院维持了美国地区法官斯蒂芬·克拉克在圣路易斯作出的支持共和党地图的临时命令。但在作出这一裁决的同时，第八巡回上诉法院下令克拉克——一名特朗普任命的法官——将其临时命令转为永久命令，这一举措似乎需要最高法院再次介入。
反对者向最高法院表示，作出该裁决的第八巡回上诉法院合议庭（包括两名特朗普任命的法官和一名由另一位共和党总统任命的法官）破坏了最高法院9月10日的裁决，并敦促最高法院迅速纠正这一情况。
“人民而非政客密苏里州”组织执行主任理查德·冯·格兰恩对周五的裁决表示赞扬。
“我们受够了腐败政客试图绕过密苏里州宪法规定的程序，强行推行他们的地图。我们从一开始就说过，人民，而非政客，将最终决定这场针对华盛顿权力攫取的斗争，”冯·格兰恩在一份声明中说道。

该组织的律师阿巴·卡纳表示：“美国最高法院已经第三次告诉密苏里州官员，他们不能凌驾于本州最高法院之上，强迫选民接受非法的党派分赃选区划分。”
特朗普去年敦促由共和党执政的州重新划定众议院选区边界，以偏袒共和党候选人，从而提高该党维持众议院微弱多数席位的几率。
密苏里州共和党在2025年通过了新的选区地图，该地图取消了堪萨斯城的一个众议院选区，该选区长期由民主党众议员伊曼纽尔·克利弗占据。
密苏里州最高法院于9月3日一致裁定，根据州法律，共和党制定的地图在提交选民公投之前，不得在中期选举中使用。
密苏里州官员请求美国最高法院介入以允许使用该地图，但在9月8日被保守派大法官布雷特·卡瓦诺否决。

克拉克于当日晚些时候发布命令，禁止使用除2025年重划地图之外的任何地图，因为这些国会选区边界线已经在密苏里州8月4日的党内初选中使用过。克拉克是在密苏里州最高法院作出不利裁决后，审理密苏里州共和党众议员鲍勃·翁德等原告提起的诉讼时作出这一裁决的。
美国最高法院随后于9月10日否决了重划后的地图。没有大法官公开对这份简短的未署名裁决表示异议，该裁决未给出解释。
在该行动之后，共和党官员表示中期选举将使用2022年通过的密苏里州之前的国会选区地图。但第八巡回上诉法院继续对克拉克的临时命令提起上诉，并于周一维持了克拉克的裁决，为最高法院再次介入铺平了道路。

- Summary
- At issue is disputed map of Missouri US House districts
- Republican-drawn map erased a Democratic-held district
- Missouri’s top court blocked new map pending referendum
- Dispute comes weeks before November midterm elections
Sept 25 (Reuters) – The US Supreme Court, acting for a third time in a fierce battle over the makeup of Missouri’s congressional districts, barred the state on Friday from using a redrawn map designed to favor Republicans in November’s elections, a setback for President Donald Trump’s party as it fights to keep control of Congress.
The justices granted a request by the map’s challengers, including a group called People Not Politicians, to suspend lower court decisions that had required the reconfigured US House of Representatives district boundaries to be used in the November 3 midterm elections.

The dispute, waged in both state and federal courts, has led to multiple conflicting court rulings, leaving Missouri’s House districts in limbo as the legal wrangling raced back and forth to the top US judicial body. Absentee voting is already underway in Missouri.
“At this late date, ordering reversion to the 2025 map in the midst of an ongoing election would usher in electoral chaos,” the court said in an unsigned, four-page ruling.
Given its two prior interventions, the latest order should “come as no surprise,” the ruling added. No justice publicly dissented from the decision.
The Supreme Court’s latest action came after the St. Louis-based 8th US Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday ruled that the Republican-drawn map must be used — even though the Supreme Court had blocked it on September 10, a decision thought to have settled the matter.

The 8th Circuit upheld a temporary order by US District Judge Stephen Clark in St. Louis favoring the Republican map. But in doing so, the 8th Circuit ordered Clark, a Trump appointee, to make his temporary order permanent — a move that appeared to require renewed Supreme Court intervention.
The challengers told the Supreme Court that the 8th Circuit panel that made the ruling, which included two judges appointed by Trump and one appointed by another Republican president, has undermined a September 10 decision by the justices, and urged quick correction.
Richard von Glahn, the executive director of People Not Politicians Missouri, praised Friday’s ruling.
“We are done with corrupt politicians trying to force their map into effect outside the process outlined in the Missouri constitution. We have said from the beginning, people, not politicians will be the final deciders on this DC power grab,” von Glahn said in a statement.

Abha Khanna, a lawyer for the group, said: “Three times now, the United States Supreme Court has told Missouri state officials that they cannot override their own state’s highest court and force an unlawful gerrymander on voters.”
Trump last year urged Republican-governed states to redraw the boundaries of their House districts to favor Republican candidates in order to boost the party’s chances of maintaining its narrow majority in the House.
Missouri Republicans in 2025 adopted their new map, which dismantled a Kansas City-based House district held by longtime Democratic Representative Emanuel Cleaver.
The Missouri Supreme Court unanimously ruled on September 3 that under state law the Republican-drawn map could not be used in the midterms until it is first put to a voter referendum.
Missouri officials asked the US Supreme Court to intervene to allow the map, but were rebuffed on September 8 in a decision made by conservative Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

Clark later that day issued his order barring any map except for the redrawn 2025 one because those congressional district lines were already used in Missouri’s August 4 party primary elections. Clark acted in a lawsuit by Republican US Representative Bob Onder of Missouri and other plaintiffs after the unfavorable ruling by the state’s top court.
The US Supreme Court in turn blocked the redrawn map on September 10. No justice publicly dissented from that brief order, which was unsigned and gave no explanation.
Following that action, Republican officials said the midterms would be held using the state’s previous congressional map, passed in 2022. But the 8th Circuit proceeded with an appeal of Clark’s temporary order, and on Monday it upheld Clark’s decision, paving the way for the Supreme Court to act again.
