Virginia redistricting referendum faces vote

The redistricting battle in Virginia has reached a fever pitch as both parties pour millions into a final campaign blitz.

A proposed constitutional amendment would allow the state legislature to redraw districts, potentially turning the current 6-5 congressional split into a 10-1 Democratic advantage.

President Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson held a last-minute tele-rally urging supporters to reject the measure, which they claim undoes previous nonpartisan reforms.

Supporters argue the move is a necessary response to aggressive gerrymandering by Republicans in other states.
