Virginia Redistricting in Court: Judge Rules Dems Broke the Law on Constitutional Amendment Push

Former Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli said a recent state court ruling blocking Democrats’ attempt to advance a redistricting constitutional amendment is firmly rooted in Virginia law and could ultimately be upheld on appeal. Speaking with The Daily Signal’s Joe Thomas, Cuccinelli said the judge found the amendment process violated state law on three independent grounds, including notice requirements, election timing, and limits on special legislative sessions. This ruling is “no slam dunk,” however, says Cuccinelli, Virginia’s former attorney general and current national chairman of the Election Transparency Initiative. “It is not common for a judge to go beyond ruling on one reason to reach an outcome, but the judge, I presume, knows that this is on a tight time schedule. And, in his mind, presumably, there wasn’t time to go up to the Supreme Court and come back down… so he ruled on everything in front of him. So now it goes to the Virginia Supreme Court, and this is no slam dunk.” The Daily Signal cannot continue to tell stories, like this one, without the support of our viewers: https://secured.dailysignal.com/ #DailySignal #Trump #WhiteHouse #Republicans #Democrats #Congress #USPolitics #Politics #MAGA #News #BreakingNews
