If the race to redraw maps in many if not all southern states isn’t an obvious flag that what the SC did recently was wrong! What has happened in Virginia was worse. It disenfranchises every American.

Yes, VA is particularly egregious because the people of Virginia VOTED on the issue.

There are millions of upset people around the country!

I’m horrified of what is happening. I remember the civil rights movement of the early 1960’s and even as a child I was uncomfortable. This is bringing all of that back. On top of this, Trump is trying to bring more Afrikaners here on a special visa?

call them out- at this point anyone who continues to identify as a republican is supporting a regime that mocks our democracy, our courts and our rights. Remember “first they came for xxx then they came for …)

Virginia governor Spanberger should copy Louisiana governor and declare a state of emergency then void the court decision and reinstall the new districts that will help save this country from the autocrats. If the Virginia court doesnt like that, then the Va. Nat. Guard should protect democracy by placing them on vacation for the duration.

With all the crazy convoluted redistricting going on, will Democrats even have a CHANCE to take a majority in the House?

I so appreciate Andrew saying the reason SCOTUS' gave for their Callais decision isn't their call. I kept thinking, "why does SCOTUS get to decide that there is no need for Section 2 of the VRA any longer?" Seems to me that is a Congressional discussion and decision.

So, the voters of that county can’t sue to get the ballots back?
