Democrats handed to Republicans a virtual curb stomping this past November. However in typical Democrat fashion, they are misreading the results in a way which will not end well for them. Ms. Spanberger campaigned on “affordability”. Yet Democrats are instead using the results to give themselves power that was never given to them by the voters.
Take the constitutional amendment which was voted on in 2020. In a year in which Joe Biden beat Donald Trump by approximately 10%, the redistricting amendment won with over 66.1% of the vote. Aka both Democrat and Republican voters spoke loud and clear that who represents us in Congress and in the State House should not be determined by politicians, but by a non partisan or bi partisan effort.
And the Congressional Districts drawn by the Commission/Supreme Court show this. They show a Virginia with 5 Congressional GOP Districts and 6 Democrat districts.
Now let us see how voters in different locales feel about this bi partisan approach.
Let’s take Lexington Va. A city with a 62-38 D vs R lean. Lexington went near 3-1 in favor of bi partisan districts (1955-578).
Now let’s go to Winchester City. A city that is likely 47-53 in favor of Democrats. Winchester in the 2020 redistricting vote went more than 2-1 in favor of bi partisan redistricting (7627-3547).
Frederick County went nearly 3-1 in favor of bi/non partisan redistricting (32620-14220)
Same with Rockingham County, and even Fairfax County went for non partisan redistricting by a 60-40 margin.
In fact every locale in Virginia supported non or bi partisan redistricting other than Arlington.
This unconstitutional and blatantly illegal power grab by the party of Big Government is being done because once the Democrats show once again who they really are, voters won’t support their bizarre agenda (genital mutilations of children, abortion up to the baby entering the birth canal, higher taxes for everyone, limiting your 2nd Amendment rights) and will vote Republicans back in power. So the thought of the Democrats is to change districts so much that the GOP won’t be able to take power back for 10 years or more. And by that time, they’ll have destroyed Virginia so much that it won’t be recognizable. If the Democrats – who are led by Ms. Spanberger, have their way – you won’t have much of a choice of what type of car you can drive. We will have brown outs in our electric grid because we won’t have the power supply available once we are forced to drive the cars of Democrat’s choices.
Virginians this is our time to shine. Let us stop the Democrats stealing our elections and vote against gerrymandering in Virginia this coming April.

“a blatant power grab?”
And what do you call the actions of Republicans in Texas, Missouri, Indiana . . .
Well, to begin with, the redistricting in Texas was in compliance with a court order so there’s your TRUTH. You got any more stupid Schiff you want to drool on these pages? You would be far more credible if you didn’t hide behind daily changing monikers. What are you afraid of?
John, I appreciate your confidence. The plain fact is that the state is already lost. Once the new laws regarding voting i.e. bans on hand counting, allowing ballot harvesting, no limits on when ballots can be counted after election day, etc. will result in the same wide spread fraud that saw Biden installed as another Obama puppet. There will be challenges of course but the Obama/Biden judges will simply rule against them. The appeals process, especially thru the 4th Circus will take years and by then the damage is cemented in place. All we can do is hunker down and hope that the elections this November retain Republican control of the government. If the traitors seize either house the country will be lost as well. I pray that I am wrong.
