MADNESS: Virginia Voters Narrowly Approve Redistricting Measure

4

Color me skeptical but without the SAVE America act, expect these kind of absurd election results.

Democrats won Virginia in 2024 by just 5 points

They will now control almost every district

The new map will likely give Republicans just one seat while Democrats get ten.

Dems Win Naked Power Grab In Virginia, Could Lose In Court On Constitutional Grounds

That will likely give Democrats four additional seats in the House. The vote was close: 51 percent affirming the measure, 49 percent rejecting it (New York Times).

Virginian-Pilot: Democrats hoping to flip Republican control of the U.S. House of Representatives in this year’s midterm elections scored an advantage Tuesday with Virginia’s approval of congressional redistricting likely to net them four additional seats (Pilot).

Ken Cuccinelli—formerly the Attorney General for the Commonwealth—summarized the court challenges ahead: The “yes” vote has won Va’s redistricting referendum — but the legal fight is just beginning. Four Va Constitutional challenges are now teed up: THREE challenges to the amendment process itself: 1: First passage was invalid. The amendment was taken up during a special session convened in 2024 for budget purposes…. 2. Art. XII, §1 requires that after first passage, a proposed amendment be “referred to the General Assembly at its first regular session held after the next general election of members of the House of Delegates.” … 3: Art. XII, §1 requires the amendment be submitted to voters “not sooner than ninety days after final passage by the General Assembly.” 4: Art. II, §6 requires that “every electoral district shall be composed of contiguous and compact territory.” The proposed congressional maps violate this contiguity requirement (rather badly). Next stop, court. Stay tuned (Cuccinelli).
