Friend -- Virginia is a prime example of how the NDRC’s work to end gerrymandering makes a difference:

     ➙  2017: The NDRC launches and invests in Virginia. Voters elect a Democratic governor and flip 15 House of Delegates seats.
     ➙  2018-2019: Courts rule that Virginia’s House of Delegates map is a racial gerrymander and order a new, fair one.
     ➙  2019: The NDRC invests in Virginia again -- and this time, Democrats FLIP the House AND the Senate! Virginia now has a Democratic trifecta, ensuring fair redistricting!

Virginia shows what we can achieve together when we have sufficient investment, strong partners, and energized voters. But it’s only one state, (with only 11 U.S. House seats). Our nine 2020 target states currently have 142 seats between them.

Will you help us expand our success in Virginia to additional critical target states?

As A.G. Holder said of Democrats’ wins in Virginia, “[These] results show how our elections should work -- a state legislature decided by the people, not by those who were in charge of drawing the lines.”

-- Team NDRC
