[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Vote no.

Set aside your politics, and your views of Trump (believe me, I get them). Ask yourself: Is this fair? Objectively, to get from a purple 6-5 division to a 10-1 blue is insane, and cannot be reflective of the people in the state. And the fact that the commercials about this explicitly tout the fairness! Do they think people are really that stupid? It is brute-force power engineering.

I guess i get the tit-for-tat justification, but reject it viscerally: this is not about Texas or California or any other state. This is about Virginia.

I also really really hate that Governor Spanberger clearly opposed this....until she didn't.[/quote]

Ask yourself this: does MAGA play fair?

I used to think it was important to be the better person. I still believe that, in my personal life. But  the only way to deal with extremism, is to play the rules of the game they made. If they don't play fair, there's no reason why everyone else should.

I vote yes.

F MAGA.

if this passes, it is never going to go away bc Virginia will renew it. Once government has a power, they don’t give it up. We have been burned on this kind of thing before.

Ask yourself, if MAGA somehow manages to win either in the next election or the one after, do you want MAGA having this power????

This is the problem with tit-for-tat decision-making. I really really hate it, and it never makes anything FAIR.
Also, if you hate MAGA so much, why in the world do you want to emulate them? Lastly, Dems are going to take the House. They really do not need to engage in gutter battles like this.

They won’t necessarily take the house back for more than two years. The number of competitive seats is very small and Republicans are going to pick up another 18 seats in 2028 from the voting rights act being overturned.[/quote]
