[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Special election for what?[/quote]

To throw out the constitutional requirement voted in by around 2/3 of fairfax residents that requires all voting districts to be drawn by an independent coalition.

The "Fair" Voting Act replace the independent commisdion with a gerrymandered map in violation of the Virginia Constitution, that divides Fairfax county into 5 congressional districts around 15 miles apart.

In the new gerrymandered map voted on in April, the new state government:

District 11 goes through 14 counties in a giant V shape, from Arlington at the point out to rural virginia hours away past Harrisonburg and Charlottesville on one leg and around Goochland County on the other end, wrapping around Richmond.

District 8 is like a lizard doing a headstand with its tail in the air, starting with a sliver of Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax and Prince William counties, through 16 counties down to around Glouchester County near Williamsburg.

At the end of the day we voted for this [/quote]

No.

We voted for "affordability" not shredding the Virginia constitution and gerrymandering that disenfranchises 45% of our state.

The Virginia gerrymandering is far more egregious than the Texas gerrymandering.  Just look at the maps.[/quote]
