Virginia Redistricting Vote Blocked

The Virginia Circuit Court has issued an injunction against the certification of a voter-approved redistricting plan that favored the Democratic Party.

The map was projected to help Democrats flip up to four Republican-held seats in the upcoming midterm elections.

President Trump has characterized the original vote as 'rigged,' while the state's Attorney General has vowed to file an immediate appeal.

This legal stalemate adds further volatility to a nationwide redistricting war that is increasingly being fought in the courts.
