Florida and Virginia's Redistricting Gamble

Ahead of the 2026 midterms, Florida and Virginia are both pursuing mid-decade redistricting for partisan gain. In Florida, Governor Ron DeSantis has called a special legislative session for late April to redraw the congressional map, drawing Democratic backlash and gerrymandering concerns.

In Virginia, voters face an April 21 referendum on a constitutional amendment that, if passed, would temporarily allow the Democratic-controlled legislature to bypass the state's bipartisan commission and enact a heavily Democratic 10-1 congressional map.
