Your vote is stronger when you're voting as a community.

But across Virginia, communities are being split up - by district lines. Without a strong community voice, important local issues aren't addressed.

We believe that legislative districts should help build communities, not divide them. No neighborhood's voice should be cut into pieces by partisan gerrymandering. Yet it's happening every day. Partisan gerrymandering means more gridlock and a less friendly environment for businesses who want to build

Governor Tim Kaine, Lt. Governor Bill Bolling, Former Governor Mark Warner, and Former Senator George Allen all agree that it's time to fix this problem.

I am pleased to support the goals of this reform to better assure fairness and Virginia Constitutional principles in Virginia redistricting. ... The people of Virginia deserve a better redistricting system than what we have experienced and endured for decades. -Governor George Allen I believe Senate Bill 38 will help preserve democratic values, protect voting rights, and encourage more Virginians to be an integral part in the
redistricting process.
