Two Missouri Republican U.S. House nominees on Friday asked the U.S. District Court here to reinstate a GOP-led gerrymander of congressional district lines thrown out by the state Supreme Court.
The move represents a second legal avenue to try to get the federal courts to intervene. Two other GOP officials, Attorney General Catherine Hanaway and Secretary of State Denny Hoskins, previously said they would take the matter directly to the U.S. Supreme Court with an appeal there.
