Washington Examiner commentary editor Conn Carroll joins Jenny Beth Martin to expose how Virginia Democrats rushed a constitutional amendment through to hand themselves 10 of Virginia's 11 congressional seats — in a state where Republicans represent nearly half the electorate. The Virginia Supreme Court struck it down, and the reason is almost poetic. Democrats spent years extending Virginia's election period to 45 days. When they tried to ram their amendment through, voters had already been casting ballots for six weeks before the legislature passed it. Their own extended-voting laws made it constitutionally impossible.
In this segment you'll learn:
• Why Virginia's 1970 constitution required two votes with an "intervening election"
• How Democrats' own 45-day voting window killed the amendment
• Why Governor Abigail Spanberger's own lawyers warned against the plan
• How State Senator Louise Lucas — just arrested by the FBI for corruption — pushed it through anyway
• Why Democrats are now demanding mandatory retirement for Virginia Supreme Court justices
