Virginia Supreme Court Kills Democrat Gerrymander Scheme
"The Nation was horrified as Virginia ignored Constitutional restrictions and deleted ten of eleven districts in Virginia. Now a state court has thown a phoney referendum out, " says Eugene Delgaudio, president of Public Advocate.
The Virginia Supreme Court just killed the state Democrat Party's cynical attempt to rig the 2026 midterm election with a blatantly unconstitutional gerrymander scheme.
"On March 6, 2026, the General Assembly of Virginia submitted to Virginia voters a proposed constitutional amendment that authorizes partisan gerrymandering of congressional districts in the Commonwealth," read the court's decision. "We hold that the legislative process employed to advance this proposal violated Article XII, Section 1 of the Constitution of Virginia."
The court added, "This constitutional violation incurably taints the resulting referendum vote and nullifies its legal efficacy."..................................
.........................Specifically, the Court said that Spanberger and Democrats violated a specific constitutional requirement to hold a public referendum on redistricting,&
"To guard against hasty changes to the Commonwealth's organic law, Article XII, Section 1 also slow-walks the constitutional-amendment process," wrote the Court. "The General Assembly must twice vote in favor of a proposed amendment at two separate legislative sessions with an intervening election of the House of Delegates."
