    Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. Democrats are scheming to pack a court after justices clearly upheld the law in opposition to their agenda. No, it isn’t the U.S. Supreme Court, for once. Instead, it’s Virginia’s highest court—and Democrats’ lawless scheme is positively Machiavellian. When the Virginia Supreme Court rightly struck down Old…

    Don’t Cross ‘the Big Guy’: Reflecting on Sen. Lucas and ‘The Sopranos’

    Editor’s Note: The Supreme Court of Virginia is now weighing the recently passed redistricting referendum that was designed by the Democrat-led state government to swipe four of the five U.S. congressional seats held by Republicans in the purple state. If allowed to stand, congressional representation could go from a 6–5 split to 10–1. The Daily…

    ‘Restore Fairness’: Virginia’s Rigged Redistricting Referendum

    Virginia Democrats got what they wanted Tuesday, or did they? Voters narrowly approved a referendum (passing 51%) that hands the Democrat-controlled General Assembly the power to redraw congressional districts mid-decade, potentially flipping as many as four Republican House seats ahead of the fall midterms.

    Today, Virginians are flocking to the polls to vote on whether to amend the Virginia Constitution and let the state Legislature redraw the state’s congressional maps. The map state Democrats have proposed would give their party a 10-1 seat advantage, likely leaving just one Republican to represent the historically purple state. The Republican majority in…
