This is going to result in Democrats winning 10 of Virginia's 11 House districts. Reminder: Virginia is purple state. That's completely ridiculous. Why don't you just ban Republicans from voting altogether?

If 48.5% of Virginians vote repuplican but maps reduce them to just 1 of 11 seats (9.1%), then nearly half the state has been compressed into only 9% representation.

That means they lost about 81% of their political voice when seats are allocated.

Maybe if Republicans has conducted themselves differently in the past few years, more than 48.5% would have voted against this measure.

+1. The voters have spoken. That is how we are supposed to settle things here.

Is that a joke? People didn't even understand what they were voting for. It was just "if you hate Trump vote this way." That's what ballot initiatives always do. They do something sleazy and then they sell it to the public by saying "vote yes if you love puppies."

Are you saying Republicans were too stupid to understand the language on the initiative? Hilarious self-own.

You sound like a bratty teenager. Maybe you should listen to the adults who say this is obviously going to be struck down by the courts because the language used on the ballot was plainly deceptive. If there's one thing you absolutely cannot do with these things, it's use misleading language on the ballot. You have to be extremely clear about what is being proposed.

Hm. Perhaps if Republicans spent less time banning books and more time reading them, they could acquire greater fluency with the language.

+100

Anyone done any sort of statistical analysis comparing this to what TX did? Just looking at the maps this seems way "worse" and is quite an escalation. That might just be because I'm more familiar with VA geography though.

Here's the language:

“Should the Constitution of Virginia be amended to allow the General Assembly to temporarily adopt new congressional districts to restore fairness in the upcoming elections, while ensuring Virginia's standard redistricting process resumes for all future redistricting after the 2030 census?”

A normal person is not going to know what "restore fairness" means. It also doesn't mention that redistricting in the middle of a decade is very unusual. It's also misleading because it refers to "the upcoming elections" but this initiative actually covers the next two election cycles.

You can't leave shit out or try to hide the ball about what you're really doing.

Ok. If you don’t like that then push the GOP to ban gerrymandering.

Why? So you can do a popular vote and remove representation.

Why? To end gerrymandering.

Are you ok with gerrymandering or not?

We had a ban on gerrymandering.

Not nationally.

Are you ok with gerrymandering or not?

it is a state issue ban it in va

So you are ok with gerrymandering.

Got it. 👍

Of course a "normal" person is going to understand these things.

Even dumbass MAGA knows what the language is talking about.

Even you, who is particularly moronic, know exactly what it refers to.

Bub, I'm going to clue you in to something, because clearly nobody else in your life is. It's obvious from your posts that you get your news from Fox News, Drudge, Newsmax, and the Washington Times. You are being hoodwinked. Taken for a fool. Deluded because you lack the sophistication to spot obvious distortions, half-truths, or outright lies.

Those of us living in the real world - consuming news from a wide variety of sources, produced by actual journalists and not partisan hacks pretending to be - know that Republicans are incredibly unlikely to prevail.

They'll never take away anyone's right to vote because that would be too obvious. Instead, they'll do things to make your vote completely meaningless. That is how you disenfranchise people.

We should take notes on how the GOP has done this to black people. We might get some ideas.

No polling booths within 20 miles of a dollar general.

The referendum language was clear.

The misleading language came directly from MAGA propaganda.

Jones should go after them for illegal activities during an election.

You sound very Trump-y, the way you ignore substantive arguments and just call people names and repeat moronic bumper sticker slogans you read somewhere.

AOC said it best when she said, “Wah wah wah.” I can’t help but see children every time I see Republican white men whining about injustice.

This is going to result in Democrats winning 10 of Virginia's 11 House districts. Reminder: Virginia is purple state. That's completely ridiculous. Why don't you just ban Republicans from voting altogether?

If 48.5% of Virginians vote repuplican but maps reduce them to just 1 of 11 seats (9.1%), then nearly half the state has been compressed into only 9% representation.

That means they lost about 81% of their political voice when seats are allocated.

Maybe if Republicans has conducted themselves differently in the past few years, more than 48.5% would have voted against this measure.

+1. The voters have spoken. That is how we are supposed to settle things here.

Is that a joke? People didn't even understand what they were voting for. It was just "if you hate Trump vote this way." That's what ballot initiatives always do. They do something sleazy and then they sell it to the public by saying "vote yes if you love puppies."

Are you saying Republicans were too stupid to understand the language on the initiative? Hilarious self-own.

You sound like a bratty teenager. Maybe you should listen to the adults who say this is obviously going to be struck down by the courts because the language used on the ballot was plainly deceptive. If there's one thing you absolutely cannot do with these things, it's use misleading language on the ballot. You have to be extremely clear about what is being proposed.

Bub, I'm going to clue you in to something, because clearly nobody else in your life is. It's obvious from your posts that you get your news from Fox News, Drudge, Newsmax, and the Washington Times. You are being hoodwinked. Taken for a fool. Deluded because you lack the sophistication to spot obvious distortions, half-truths, or outright lies.

Those of us living in the real world - consuming news from a wide variety of sources, produced by actual journalists and not partisan hacks pretending to be - know that Republicans are incredibly unlikely to prevail.

Weird because you sound like what politicos euphemistically refer to a "low-information voter."

Every Republican accusation is a confession. I hope you escape from your echo chamber someday.

You sound very Trump-y, the way you ignore substantive arguments and just call people names and repeat moronic bumper sticker slogans you read somewhere.

You have not put forth a single substantive argument. You called me a bratty teenager (hey look, there's that projection again!!) and claimed that "adults" are saying it is going to be "obviously overturned." Is that what passes as a substantive argument among MAGAs these days? Grow up.

You have a very interesting idea of what constitutes a “substantive” argument.
