Ron DeSantis hints at delay in Florida redistricting session

Governor Ron DeSantis suggested that the special session on redistricting, set for next week, may be postponed due to a lack of finalized map proposals.
Infighting among Florida Republicans has stalled DeSantis' agenda, with many lawmakers showing little interest in redrawing congressional districts.
The delay could impact Republican efforts to gain additional congressional seats in a challenging election cycle, as some fear aggressive redistricting may backfire.
