The RNC sued to block Virginia’s redistricting referendum, claiming it misleads voters and violates the state constitution.

The Republican National Committee has sued to block a planned redistricting referendum in Virginia, arguing the ballot measure is misleading and unconstitutional. Republicans warn it could allow Democrats to redraw districts and shift the state’s congressional balance, while Democrats say the change would improve representation. The legal battle, now in court after the Virginia Supreme Court allowed the vote, could impact the 2026 midterm elections.
