Virginia voters approved the redistricting effort last week, giving Democrats a proposed 10-1 advantage in House seats ahead of the midterms. 

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has called a special session focused on redistricting, but a new congressional map has yet to be introduced. 

Should Virginia’s redistricting effort hold up in court, Democrats will hold the advantage in the House race during the upcoming midterm elections. 

Former President Barack Obama has called on Virginia voters to pass the redistricting effort, which would give Democrats four new House seats. 

Should the restraining order withstand appeal, the ruling would effectively end Virginia Democrats' bid to redistrict the state’s congressional maps.
