BREAKING:
A Virginia judge just temporarily halted the implementation of the state's new voter-approved redistricting measure.
Election officials cannot move forward now unless the ruling is overturned by a higher court.
Virginia's AG has vowed to appeal the ruling.
The young people in our @obamafoundation.bsky.social Leaders program give me hope. One of those leaders, Luisa Neubauer, is working to fight climate change and recently traveled to Antarctica.
This Earth Day, I hope you'll check out her incredible story.
Dear Senate Democrats,
Thank you for fighting TIRELESSLY against Trump’s terrible SAVE Act that would disenfranchise MILLIONS of voters!
This is true leadership, and it’s exactly the kind of action we need to defeat MAGA’s disgusting attacks on the American people and our fundamental rights.
Excellent report on the Los Angeles @xavierbecerra.bsky.social rally youtu.be/X5ENv7oaVuU?...
Driving through Berkeley on the way to the city. Just passed an overpass and the great big sign on it said only, “SHE WAS 13.“

Bless the resistance and everybody who works in it.
Republicans are delusional fucks. This is on their list of things to do instead of helping the American people. And they wonder why their numbers are in the goddamn toilet.
These two editorials by the Washington Post expose how the Republican Party and Democratic Party are held to completely different standards by the media.
Texas gerrymander: “Not a threat to democracy.”
Virginia gerrymander: “Power grab by Democrats.”
Don’t start no shit. Won’t be no shit.

I just finished writing my reflections on tonight's big win in Virginia. I've been fighting this fight for ten years, including three cases in SCOTUS. Tonight we won a big one at the ballot box.

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

The YES has won in Virginia; voters approved the constitutional amendment to adopt Dems' congressional gerrymander.
This is likely to deliver a 10-1 (Dem) congressional delegation in November, compared to 6-5 (Dem) now.
The remaining obstacle: State supreme court will be weighing in still.
Virginia voters hit the polls Tuesday to cast their ballots in a referendum on Democratic leaders’ plan to redraw the state’s congressional map.

Fairfax rules
Fairfax county starting to come it. Yes is winning there 75 to 25 with about 350K votes yet to be counted. That puts Yes up by about 240K conservatively. Still a nail biter, but a win is a win. LFG!
Staying close so far.
Richmond and Fairfax county are still zero percent reporting. Some of the bluest areas.
