In a post on Truth Social Thursday morning, President Donald Trump referenced redistricting without outright saying it, stating Missouri "is now IN," and they are going to win the midterms there "bigger and better than ever before."

Asked if he gave the president any commitment to redrawing the congressional map, Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe denied even discussing the matter with the president.

"No, we haven't had any direct conversation with the President about the maps or what that's gonna look like.

Kehoe says he is continuing to discuss redistricting with state lawmakers.

"The President is right, he has won this state three times in a row... We're going to continue to look at ways to get Missouri's values to match Washington DC's values."
