Temporary Legislative Redistricting for Fair Elections

A "yes" vote supported allowing the General Assembly to redraw congressional districts between January 1, 2025, and October 31, 2030, if another state redraws its districts for reasons other than completing decennial redistricting or complying with a court order.

If the amendment is approved, House Bill 29 would take effect and implement a new congressional district map that shifts four Republican-held districts to be more Democratic, based on the 2025 gubernatorial election results.

The constitutional amendment would provide that the Virginia Redistricting Commission will redraw congressional districts in 2031.

A "no" vote opposed allowing the General Assembly to redraw congressional districts between January 1, 2025, and October 31, 2030.

Had the amendment been defeated, the congressional map adopted by the Virginia Redistricting Commission would remain in place through 2030 unless changed by a court order.
