Gerrymandering is killing the Democratic process. Make Congress represent ALL constituents, not just their chosen ones!

Gerrymandering is part and parcel with voter suppression and constitutes the attempt to deny voters representation guaranteed by the Constitution. Simply put it is a way by which those who know they can not win a fair vote cheat. Most often this form of cheating is also an overt form of racism to promote political power for those who are white, and deny it to those who are not. This should clearly be considered a criminal act.

I believe this is the best way to restore a vibrant and meaningful democracy to Virginia. We should have representatives who are held accountable through real competition at every election.

This is a first step that will allow VA to lead the nation in election reform. Establish a non partisan panel to commission our world-class higher education institutions to develop a simple, logical and fair districting plan.

We need a Special Session - let's get fair districting in our State. Please support legislation for fair redistricting so all Virginian voices are heard.

We need redistricting based on numbers of people without consideration of party affiliation income, race or any other demographic. Boundries should be drawn to be as compact as possible taking into consideration only natural and neighborhood boundries.
