Virginia’s Voters Speak

A new poll says 52 percent of Virginia voters support redistricting that would give Democrats an upper hand in November’s elections. The Washington Post-Schar School poll found this slim majority would vote ‘yes’ on the measure if it were on the ballot.

The Numbers

It’s not exactly a ringing endorsement, but it’s enough to give Democrats hope. The poll’s results are a mixed bag, and it’s clear that voters aren’t entirely sold on the idea. Still, if the election were held today, it looks like Democrats would have a slight advantage.

Don’t expect this to be a decisive factor, though. Voters are fickle, and their opinions can change quickly. For now, it’s just a poll – and we all know how reliable those can be.
