RICHMOND, VA – The Virginia House Democratic Caucus released the following statement:
“From day one, this was about more than a single election. It was about fighting against a political power grab. It was about making sure the voices of the people matter. And at the ballot box, a historic number of Virginians made their voice loud and clear.
“Thank you to all of the Virginians who showed up to the polls, raised their voices, and voted YES. They sent a message that was heard not only in the Commonwealth but across the nation, in the halls of Congress, and in the Oval Office. The reality that Virginians want to level the playing field and to have their voices heard during every election is not undone by a court ruling.
“We will continue to fight for a Commonwealth and country where the people – not politicians – make the decisions that shape their lives. Virginia House Democrats work every day to reflect the voices of our constituents, and that work will continue.”
