False claim that plan would increase 'fairness' cited as problematicA judge in Virginia has blocked a scheme there by Democrats, who recently took control of the governor's office and other parts of state government, to re-arrange the congressional districts so that Republicans would be removed from office and more Democrats would go to Washington for the state.
The ruling temporarily stops election officials from carrying out a redistricting referendum in April.
It was in response to complaints from the Republican National Committee, National Republican Congressional Committee and several GOP House members from Virginia.
It was Judge Jack Hurley Jr. of the state Circuit Court of Tazewell County who rule, for the second time, against the redistricting agenda there. Other states already have redistricted, such as Texas which set up boundary lines that are favorable to Republicans and California, which redrew lines to be favorable for Democrats, and several other states.
