INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Governor Mike Braun now says a special session to redraw Indiana’s congressional map is “increasingly likely.”
The governor made those comments to the media Tuesday morning.
Braun says he still wants to wait until he gets a clear signal from Republicans whether they want him to call a special session.
More state lawmakers who were previously against redistricting now say they support it.
“All I’m telling you is that we’re gonna look at it, we’re gonna poll our legislators, and if it’s there, we’ll do it,” Braun said. “My feeling is, it probably will happen. There will be some other issues we talk about but I’m going to let it happen organically at the pace we put in place. I think we’ll get there. That’s my opinion.”
Braun says other issues might include adjusting state law to fit with new regulations in the federal budget bill.
If a special session is called, Braun estimates it may happen anytime between early November and early January.
This is a developing story.
