I'm also an independent and moderate regarding many issues, which is why I wholeheartedly voted "No." For the good of all.

It’s such a lie that it’s temporary for one. The district lines will stay in the new shapes, the old ones will never come back. That is 1000% clear. They mist chame the numbers slightly after the new census in a few years but the new districts will remain and never go back to previous.

Two wrongs don’t make a right. “Because TX did it”, is not a valid argument.

Trump is done soon. We will be stick with these nonsensical districts dividing small toens and counties into separate districts.

We really need to stop looking at politics as a game and what side is going to win and knocking opponents out. We need to think of society if the politicians won't.

It’s a “no” vote for me too, based on everything you said


It is temporary. New legislation would need to be passed beyond the next planned redistricting.

Of course MAGAs will misrepresent this.


Federal income taxes were supposed to be temporary too. Fool me once..


You were around for that?



It’s temporary. Period.


"Trust me, bro"

The people saying it’s temporary are the same ones telling us it’s about “restoring fairness”. The deception behind it is shocking.


It even said in the “fine print” that it’s temporary, because it will be adjusted again - not because we will ever go back to the lines and districts we had before. The subsequent adjustments will be minimal and not a complete redraw not will the map from 2021 ever come back after this. Yet every TV ad now emphasizes the “temporary”. - it’s so disingenuous!

I agree that the only way to restore sanity to our politics and our country, and to make us united again, is to get the MAGAs out of power by voting YES on the amendment.


Pssst. Just a heads up. You are who PP is talking about. You’re part of the problem.


Pssst. Just a heads up. This isn't a "both sides" problem. So if we want unity, we need to start by getting rid of the people who caused us to become so divided. I'm a Republican, and I see this very clearly, so I'll be voting YES.


You are not getting rid of MAGA by gerrymandering Virginia s voter maps. You are getting rid of MAGA by telling your republican representatives to grow a spine!

The people voting no are the ones who are okay with bombing schools full of children, threatening to end civilizations and mocking religion. We see exactly who you are.


Thank you DNC bot. Kamala thinking of running again huh.


Need receipts?

Bombing “ U.S. at Fault in Strike on School in Iran, Preliminary Inquiry Says
Outdated targeting data may have resulted in a mistaken missile strike, according to the ongoing military investigation, which undercuts President Trump’s assertion that Iran could be to blame.” 175 people, mostly children
https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/11/us/politics/iran-school-missile-strike.html

“A whole civilization will die tonight…” https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/trump-says-a-whole-civilization-will-die-tonight-if-iran-does-not-make-deal-2026-04-07/

Trump: "Open the F*ckin’ Strait, you crazy b*stards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah."

This is why people look at you in disbelief when you support Republicans.



Here's a clue for you. The SENATE NOT THE HOUSE declares war. They have to pass bills. The House is not going to change anything.


The only thing that the Rs in the Senate do is bend over and let Trump do whatever he wants.


Even if this were true, how is redistrctimg VA going to do anything about it?


Impeach the MFer.

Invoke the 25th.

Push legislation to limit war powers, corruption, etc.

We've tried telling them to grow a spine -- hasn't worked. So gerrymandering it is. And yes, it will get rid of MAGA; remember that Texas did it first because they needed those additional seats for MAGA to stay in power, so VA offsetting what TX did can indeed take MAGA out of control.

Rs love to pretend like they didn’t do anything wrong.

It's a response to the MAGA's power grab nationally.

Didn't hear you complaining about the Rs gerrymandering in TX, MO, NC, or UT.

Why the F would anyone on an anonymous DC message board complain about gerrymandering in those states, jackass? They didn’t complain about gerrymandering in CA, MD or IL either.

What a dumb comment

They isn’t about state legislators, it’s for the US Congress.

It’s a national issue, dipshit.

Wow. You’re really slow. How many times do we need to explain it to you.

It’s not a lie. It’s an attempt to restore fairness NATIONALLY after Rs have gerrymandered several states.

WTF are you babbling about? State legislators?

I guess you’re so outraged by gerrymandering in CA, IL and MD that you’re not thinking clearly.
