The Virginia redistricting referendum allowed to move forward by the state’s Supreme Court just a few weeks ago has been blocked by a circuit court judge. A temporary restraining order was issued by Tazewell County Circuit Judge Jack Hurley Jr. to halt election officials from working on the April 21 referendum. Now, municipalities are enjoined from preparing for the election but not enjoined from holding the election. With conflicting orders, cities and counties in Virginia are asking for clarification on what they are required to do. Republicans in the state aim to block this vote as it will possibly open four additional seats for Democrats in the state and counteract redistricting efforts in other states. Final decisions are still pending in both the Republican suit and the appeal of another case.
