Virginia vote could tilt House map toward Democrats
TL;DR
Voters in Virginia are deciding a redistricting referendum that could create up to four Democratic-leaning U.S. House seats; backed by substantial funding, the measure would allow partisan redistricting through 2030 and faces ongoing legal challenges as part of a national redistricting contest. Early voting showed strong turnout ahead of the vote.
