The politics of the Virginia redistricting gambit.
Hard to believe that they didn't know their referendum was not legally suspect. There seems to be a lot of knee jerk reactions and partisan crying over the recent Virginia and US supreme court decisions to invalidate the Virginia redistricting scheme. The truth is that it is almost impossible to believe that Virginia Democrats did not know that their plan did not follow the constitution, the laws, or the process required. To some degree they didn't even try. They were so eage

Cassidy defeated in GOP primary.
Trump went after him personally after he voted to convict Trump on his impeachment. “When you participate in democracy, sometimes it doesn’t turn out the way you want it to,” Cassidy said. “But you don’t pout, you don’t whine. You don’t claim the election was stolen… You don’t manufacture some excuse.” Trump is having a hell of a primary season. The vast majority of the primary challengers he has endorsed have beaten the incumbent, Cassidy being the most recent. We will see

Starmer refuses to step down, says that the election caused instability?
“The past 48 hours have been destabilizing for government and that has a real economic cost for our country and for families,” If this man's approval rating was his age, he would not be allowed in a bar, folks. Rather than resign (after getting massacred in the last election) he blames the electorate for creating destabilization of the economy by voting against his Party. He is truly someone who doesn't get it. Now I have always been fascinated by how quick people are to call

Virginia legislature looking at replacing the entire Virginia Supreme Court and replace them with justices that will rule in their favor?
They are thinking about lowering the mandatory retirement age to remove everyone. Have you no shame is a phrase that comes to mind here. The idea that you simply replace the entire Supreme Court because you disagreed with their decision is ludicrous. But the concept, of course, is that they are likely thinking that the further they jump the shark on this one, the more people will believe that they were wronged. To be clear, this was a pretty clear cut decision and if anyone w

Virginia new map is tossed out.
4-3 ruling suggests it was not properly rolled out. In this case, voting in the general election for the House of Delegates began on September 19, 2025, and ended on Election Day, November 4, 2025. The General Assembly voted for the first time to propose the constitutional amendment to the electorate on October 31, 2025. By that date, over 1.3 million votes had been cast in the general election, which was approximately 40% of the total vote for that election cycle. ... For th

Anti-redistricting Indiana Republicans take a beating in the primary elections!
Several Trump backed candidates overwhelmed the incumbents and it appears six of those who voted against redistricting lost their primary bid last night. At the end of the night only a couple of those who voted against the redistricting plan are going to be on the ballot again in November. Obviously not all Senators are up for reelection, so there are still quite a few who voted against redistricting that will remain in the Senate. But I think this may have been a bit of an e
