Redistricting in Virginia S5E58 05.18.2025
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today our question in from Tammy from Roanoke, Virginia writes, “I am very angry at the Virginia Supreme Court, overturning the redistricting decision made by the people. How is it possible for a group of judges to reject a democratically approved law? The people spoke and it seems our voices don’t matter anymore. I know this question might cause a fight on the Podcast. Dr. Brooklynn will see this as a validation of her position the system is being rigged, where Dr. Mark will push back on any such notation. So, all I can say is Sorry Dr. Scott, you’ll need to use all your skills to mediate this.
