Voting YES today on Virginia’s redistricting referendum. Here’s why — clearly.
Republican-led states redrew their congressional maps mid-decade, at Trump’s direction, to lock in House seats before November. No voter approval. No apology.
Virginia’s YES vote is a direct, temporary response. If it passes:
✅ Virginia redraws our maps to offset what other states did
✅ We could flip enough seats to restore a Democratic House majority — and real oversight of this administration
✅ It automatically expires after 2030, and our bipartisan commission takes back over
Is it a Democratic gerrymander? Yes. Suckily.
But the choice isn’t between this map and a perfect one — it’s between this map and the one that leaves Republicans unchecked.
In normal times, two wrongs don’t make a right. These aren’t normal times.
Vote YES. Today. Polls close at 7pm.
