Virginia redistricting

2026 Congressional Redistricting

Democratic state legislators have proposed a constitutional amendment that would allow the Virginia General Assembly to redraw congressional districts outside of the normal 10-year redistricting process. This is part of a national Democratic response to Republican-led redistricting efforts in other states, kicked off by President Trump's encouragement to draw maps that are more favorable for the GOP before midterm elections this November. - VPAP

Virginia stands at a crossroads

The Supreme Court of Virginia has cleared the way for voters to decide on new congressional maps in an April 21st referendum. This is not a backroom decision. This is not a legislative maneuver. This is the people’s call.  View the new 10-1 Congressional map here.

Governor Abigail Spanberger said it plainly: “Now it’s up to voters.” House Speaker Don Scott was even clearer, "When the stakes are this high, we cannot sit back." And here’s the truth: we have less than 10 weeks. If we do not organize, educate, and mobilize — misinformation will fill the vacuum.

Fair maps don’t defend themselves. Voters do. Center For Common Ground is mobilizing voters for the election. If you believe representation should be earned — not engineered — now is the time to step forward. Support their efforts for:

• Door-to-door canvassing in communities too often overlooked
• Postcard outreach through trusted Black churches
• Phone banks connecting directly with 475,000 Black voters across the Commonwealth

TakeAway:  VOTE! Support Center For Common Ground to mobilize Virginia voters.
