Virginia Voters Give Dems Big Win In The Gerrymandering Wars.

[0311]

The new map could wipe out Republicans' gains so far in the race President Donald Trump kicked off last summer in Texas. Virginia voters on Tuesday approved Democrats’ effort to gerrymander the state, giving the party an edge in its bid to reclaim the House in November.

The new map would give Democrats the chance to flip four seats currently held by Republicans. Its adoption could put Democrats slightly ahead in the national mid-decade gerrymandering wars — a result few thought possible when President Donald Trump picked the fight by pushing Texas Republicans to redraw their map last summer.

The result is a major win for Democrats’ hopes of retaking Congress, and showed their ability to mobilize voters distrustful of partisan redistricting and push back against Trump in the Democratic-leaning state. It’s also a victory for Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger in her first national test as governor, after she faced pressure to take a more active role in the campaign’s final stretch.

I can hear it now, how unfair it was that Virginia (like California) to change their maps. Ignoring the fact that unlike Texas where Republicans without consent of voters, gerrymandered their Congressional because Trump wanted them to.

The Voters of California AND Virginia support new Congressional Maps, they voted for those maps. Never mind that the Voters of Texas did NOT give such consent. Trump started this, the Voters will end it. That is why it is called voting.

Its good to see some life in the Democratic Party. Wasn’t there a 3rd state when the Demo’s did this too???

Anyway...a win for the good guys.

“ Virginia voters on Tuesday approved Democrats’ effort to gerrymander the state”.

“That is why you will whine and complain when republicans do it to you. It’s called upping the ante.

A win for The Party of Slavery. Hardly the good guys.

From your article:

Still, one major threat still looms over Virginia’s map: The state’s Supreme Court could nullify the redistricting effort, a move that would effectively void the election results.

And this cycle’s gerrymandering fight isn’t over yet. Florida GOP lawmakers could act as soon as next week to unveil a new map that could offset Democrats’ new advantage.

Democrats have officially taken over Virginia like they did California indefinately.

How does it feel to destroy democracy?

Somehow it's fitting that Virginia, the birthplace of our nation in so many ways 250 years ago, will be the state that kicks off the second American civil war.
This is unacceptable.
Spanberger is a traitor.
The party that constantly moans about "Trump being a threat to democracy" just dropped their pants and shit all over democracy. A state that's mildly Democrat by a 6-5 Congressional margin will now be 10-1 Democrat.
This complete disregard for the voices of millions of Americans will not go ignored.
The Reckoning is coming.

This law is likely unconstitutional.

I believe that I head that one district is partially in one area and the rest is nearly a four hour drive away.

Repeat after me.

In a Democracy, it is The Will of People, NOT the right of THE
right of Government. In California and now Virginia, it was the PEOPLE WHO VOTED TO CHANGE CONGRESSIONAL MAPS. In Tex-Ass it Dementia Donnie who wanted the Congressional Changed WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE PEOPLE. In our Democracy, it is the power of the VOTE that decides who wins and who loses.
