It is last night in Virginia.
matched
There is a proposal for redistricting the electoral maps of this state.
matched
This is a proposal that began, ironically enough, and we're going to get to this, because Donald Trump wanted to try and give Republicans more seats in the House of Representatives in advance of the 2026 midterm elections.
matched
And what ends up happening?
matched
A state like Virginia puts a new map engineered by a Black woman.
matched
Virginia State Senator Luis Lucas, who we're going to hear a little bit from, some sound from in a little while, engineers a map, it's put in front of Virginia voters, and they vote in favor of it in a way that is likely to lose Republican seats.
matched
The next day, ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States, the person who started this whole gerrymandering experiment in aids of Steve Bannon and other folks,
matched
decides to take to socials and call this election rigged.
matched
He posted on social today saying, quote, a rigged election took place last night in the great Commonwealth of Virginia.
matched
All day long, Republicans were winning.
matched

matched
eked out another crooked victory.
matched

matched
Everyone has the right to vote
matched
Via mail-in, they have the right to vote early where their jurisdiction allows it.
matched
They have the right to exercise their civic duty as they see fit.
matched
What this is really about is the fact that Donald Trump looks terrible because everywhere that he has tried to push this gerrymandering scandal, this scheme has not worked.
matched
It has not.
matched
Failed miserably everywhere it's been.
matched
In fact, it's actually been far more beneficial for Democrats who have decided to get in the game and say, look, two can play that game.
