Virginia's voter-approved gerrymander already hit with court block

Summary
The Virginia officials announced on Wednesday that a circuit court judge handed down an injunction to stop the redistricting that voters approved on Tuesday to open four seats for Democrats to win. Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones posted a statement on X on Wednesday saying he plans to challenge the injunction handed down by the Tazewell County Circuit Court. "My office will immediately file an appeal," the statement by Jones read. "Virginia voters have spoken, and an activist judge should not have veto power over the People's vote." Former Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli also reported on X that the circuit court ruled that the referendum is unconstitutional and issued an injunction to stop the referendum. He expected that the ruling "will be immediately appealed."
