but I will say that the Virginia Attorney General is appealing to the SCOTUS. I put no faith in the GOP controlled SCOTUS but at least the Virginia Attorney General is trying. From my research it looks like redistricting was given to an independent commission in 2020 and there would need to be the constitutional amendment that was passed last month to give redistricting back to the Virginia legislature in order to be able to redistrict. There certainly should be judicial reform to put an end to the GOP controlling the Virginia Supreme Court. Beyond this, I guess the hope now is for other blue states that don't have this issue to redistrict in order to counter Trump's election stealing efforts
