Thank you very much and God bless you.

“to restore fairness in the upcoming elections,”

.

To restore fairness...

Right there one can get more than just a glimpse of the BS freight train crashing through the constitution at 90 mph.

Lock the progs up in cages that are out in the open like a zoo.

Yep. Too many words.

The court will demand rewrite to something like — redistrict new precincts until 2030 — yes or no.

That reads like “This will only be a temporary tax” type initiatives.

“...temporarily adopt new congressional districts to restore fairness in the upcoming elections...”

If they get the word that everyone in the state is going to vote for one party, do they temporarily take votes from outside the state or only let half vote what they did and change the other’s votes to balance the election? It’s not a participation award here, it’s a competition and the goal is getting elected, not tied. idiots!!!

I think the VA supreme court only hears the cases against the referendum after the vote on April 21st.
