“‘Gerrymandering is detrimental to our democracy,’ declared Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger . . . back in 2019. ‘Let voters decide, not politicians,’ former President Barack Obama offered just last month. The problem? They’re correct! And Republicans are now sharing the statements by these two high-ranking Democrats with Virginia voters. Why? They oppose the April 21 constitutional referendum that, if passed, would allow the legislature to gerrymander the state’s congressional district lines to likely turn the federal delegation from its current six- to five-seat Democratic majority into a ten to one Democratic majority.” (04/07/26)
