Districts need to be established based on logical geographical boundaries.

Dear Governor, after watching the film "GerryRIGGED" about gerrymandering I was shaken by the redistricting decisions going on behind closed doors that we are powerless to influence when you consider the long lasting ramifications for constituents. Please help us reform this practice. Thanks for all you do for us.

Most important bipartisan issue. Critical to equity in governance.

Gerrymandering is an unethical practice aimed at circumventing democracy. Do not allow Virginia to go the way of North Carolina and Alabama.

This needs to be addressed NOW!! We can't keep kicking this down the road or expect representatives helped by gerrymandering to act to fix it

California is a good example of how it has been done successfully. We need it here, and we need it nationwide.

We deserve to see how every legislator votes on this issue.

To my knowledge, we are one of the only democracies in which elected officials draw their own voting districts. This issue is of major concern to everyone- it is a bi-partisan issue. Redistricting needs to occur at all levels and be conducted by a third-party, bi-partisan effort and certainly NOT by lawmakers or elected officials. I've already called on my state-level representatives (Delegate Minchew and Senator Wexton) to urgently address this issue on behalf of all Virginians. We ALL deserve free and fair elections and a transparent government that truly works for all of us.

Gerrymandering is voter suppression at its worst!
