I realized as the Trump signs on the lawns around me turned into vote NO signs that the people who ares saying that aren’t doing it out of principle. If it were Republicans redistricting, they would be just fine with it. They voted for Trump who is a liar, a bankrupt sexual assaulter and bringing our country to its knees. They have no principles and the only way to stop the monster is to have a temporary redistricting measure. They would do the same, and voted for someone who stormed the US capital to stay in power.

It was a sad vote, but like when I parent my kids, sometimes even sad things need to happen.


You are the one who is a liar. You were not sad about it. You were overcome with joy casting that vote, enabling your “side” to steal 4 seats in the House. You think you upped Trump, you didn’t. But congratulations, you just taught those kids that two wrongs make a right. Great parenting!


Not really, I just gave up on believing Republicans want to uphold democracy and peoples rights over corporations and power. They don’t. It does make me sad.


And now you think Democrats do? Bless your heart


Thanks, bless yours too. God save the republic. I am feeling powerless against the abomination that trumps second term. He is destroying the USA. I don’t think dems are great, but this is absolutely awful and no one is listening.


Gerrymandering Virginia is not going to save the Republic and actively destroys the rights of others. I guess that's OK since they are not on your team.

We are Team USA, not Team Fascist MFer.

Our government is broken. The POTUS should not have absolute power. We need a non-corrupt Congress to check his powers.

The “Constitutionalists” are suddenly silent. Republicans are so full of sht.

Look at this insanely gerrymandered map:

I guess Republicans were OK with it when they did it in 2010.

Thinking in political “teams” is not my intent. I have views on both sides of those “teams.” I think most people do, but the political divide is good for upping clicks, so here we are. Nothing would destroy the rights of others more than ICE and the SAVE act. My vote here may at least counter those.

As far as whether or not the referendum will save the Republic, you are probably right, but sitting here typing is definitely not going to do it either. And this is worth a try.

California already compensated for Texas' changes. Virginia doesn't need to change their maps.

Virginia is attempting to compensate for all of the other Republican states that gerrymandered after Texas: Missouri, Ohio, and North Carolina. And Florida is on deck. None of those states offered it up to the voters directly, either.


So you’ll be cool when FL reciprocates? Listen to yourself!

I’m not cool with any of this, which is why I’ve supported the multiple bills in Congress that ban partisan gerrymandering.


+1

I fully support a federal ban on gerrymandering...but until then...



Maybe the Dems doing it will finally get the GOP to start supporting that federal ban. We all know the GOP can’t recognize anything unfair or unjust unless it’s happening to them personally. In this case, you really do need to shove the dog’s face in its own poo if you expect them to learn.

Do you think democracy is working right now? We are at war and don’t even know why. We are cutting science funding, getting rid of vaccines, struggling to pay for food, not to mention the Epstein Files. Congress isn’t doing anything to help us, the Supreme Court is using shadow dockets to stack the policy deck. How is this democracy at work?

Don’t even bother engaging with those clowns. They think the GOP can do no wrong, that every end justifies every means. Peter Thiel wouldn’t be dumping tons of money into this election unless he was scared his plot for political domination would be coming to an end.

Quit projecting. You know that the Dem billionaires have been pouring far more into this than Thiel. Anyone can look at the planned maps and know there is nothing fair about it. "Restore fairness?" Pure deception from our Richmond leaders.

Trump is in power and he has been very clear that democracy is dead. The only fair election is the one that his side wins. We’re just trying to save the country from being Trump’s play toy to loan out to his billionaire buddies.

Liar. They are being totally transparent. It’s obviously to restore fairness on a national level which has been explained countless times.

You continue to push this lame ass argument hoping that your dumb fvk MAGAs will be misled. That sht doesn’t work here.

Disagree. They know that what Trump is doing is wrong. They love it because it is wrong.

They just don’t want Dems to fight back so they continue to shovel out loads of BS.

I love the enthusiasm to rig an election. Man we've gone a far, far way down the rabbit hole. We promise, we'll only rig it this time!

The mental gymnastics y’all are doing to justify your power grab is impressive. Just own it. You’re trying to gerrymander right now because you can. Or so you think. Man, even if this nonsense passes in Tuesday, the VA Supreme Court will have its say a few days later. Just think about that for a second. The Dems cheated to ram through an amendment to rig elections in their favor, all in the name of “restoring fairness”. It sounds like something you’d read in The Onion.
