US EditionRand Paul says redistricting battle ‘might lead to violence’ on both sides
Sen. Rand Paul warned that bipartisan mid-decade redistricting efforts could disenfranchise voters and escalate civil tension, potentially increasing political violence nationwide.
- On Sunday, Sen. Rand Paul warned mid-decade redistricting could "lead to violence" and blamed both Republican and Democratic leaders for escalating tensions, NBC News' Meet the Press reported.

- Threats and swatting incidents targeted local officials, with an NBC News analysis finding at least 22 officials threatened in recent weeks and at least 11 Indiana Republicans targeted after Truth Social posts.
- Paul argued members of the minority party could feel unrepresented, citing Louisville, Kentucky's one Democratic congressman and noting 35% of Texas is solidly Democratic.
- With next year's midterms looming, Sen. Rand Paul said he does not know how parties can de-escalate redistricting tensions, while Rep. James Clyburn last week also condemned these efforts.
