With Virginia and Florida poised to follow other states in midcycle redistricting next week, the partisan impact nationwide so far appears to be a wash. But by creating more “safe” districts, the new maps may make the next U.S. House even more polarized. #redistricting #virginia #florida

Neither party may win the redistricting wars. But the House could still lose.

I don't know if enough Virginia voters understand that the redistricting referendum is only about Congress. A lot of opponents are saying things about party rule in Virginia or about how they don't care what happens in other states. The referendum doesn't affect party rule in Virginia. It only affects who we send to Congress and is only being done to fix what Republicans in other states have done to Congress
