The Texas Senate could vote Friday to approve new congressional maps drawn to help Republicans win as many as five more House seats in next year’s midterm elections.

The House map was then passed by a Senate committee Thursday morning and could get a vote before the full Senate as early as Thursday night.

The move comes after the redistricting effort came to a standstill in the lower chamber earlier this month, after more than 50 Texas Democrats fled the Lone Star State to block the map.
