NRCC Chairman Hudson’s Statement on Virginia’s gerrymandering referendum

NRCC Chairman Richard Hudson (R-NC) released the following statement after the passage of Virginia’s gerrymandering referendum:

“Virginia Democrats can’t redraw reality. This close margin reinforces that Virginia is a purple state that shouldn’t be represented by a severe partisan gerrymander. That’s exactly why the courts, who have already ruled twice to block this egregious power grab, should uphold Virginia law. Even under this map, Republicans will hold our majority based on our record cleaning up Democrats’ mess and a historic war chest to litigate the Democrats’ failures.”
