Abigail SpanbergerVirginia Democratic Governor Abigail Spanberger erupted in anger on social media Friday after the Supreme Court refused to reinstate the state’s new congressional map that Democrats openly designed to flip up to four House seats in the 2026 midterms.The high court’s one-sentence order left in place a 4-3 ruling from the Virginia Supreme Court that struck down the redistricting amendment on procedural grounds, meaning the state will use its existing 2021 congressional districts for the upcoming elections.Spanberger took to X to lash out at both the state and federal courts, claiming they had “nullified an election” and the votes of more than three million Virginians.The Supreme Court of the United States has now joined the Supreme Court of Virginia in choosing to nullify an election and the votes of more than three million Virginians.These Virginians made their voices heard — casting their ballots in good faith to push back against a…— Governor Abigail Spanberger (@GovernorVA) May 16, 2026The governor wrote in full:The Supreme Court of the United States has now joined the Supreme Court of Virginia in choosing to nullify an election and the votes of more than three million Virginians.These Virginians made their voices heard — casting their ballots in good faith to push back against a President who said he’s “entitled” to more seats in Congress before voters go to the polls.As Governor, I will make sure voters know when and how to cast their votes this year. Because our votes are how we choose the representation we deserve.Spanberger later shared a link on her personal campaign account directing supporters to donate to Democratic congressional candidates via ActBlue.Yet another disappointing Court decision (after 3,000,000+ Virginians voted).What do we do with our outrage? We WIN in November.Volunteer, donate, vote, WIN.https://t.co/gS2Cag7PfX pic.twitter.com/97lAdJsGfa— Abigail Spanberger (@SpanbergerForVA) May 16, 2026The redistricting drama began when the Democrat-controlled Virginia General Assembly pushed through a constitutional amendment allowing mid-decade redrawing of congressional maps.Voters approved the measure by a slim 51.7% to 48.3% margin on April 21.The new map was widely viewed as a heavy partisan gerrymander that would have shifted Virginia’s congressional delegation from its current 6-5 Democratic advantage to as many as 10-1.However, the Virginia Supreme Court ruled earlier this month that Democrats violated the state constitution by failing to follow proper procedural timelines for placing the referendum on the ballot, specifically, the second legislative vote came too late, after early voting had already begun.Democrats filed an emergency appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court, but the justices declined to intervene in a brief, unsigned order with no noted dissents.With the May 12 deadline for map changes long passed, the state will be forced to proceed with the existing 2021 maps for the 2026 midterms.The post Virginia Governor Spanberger Rages on X After Supreme Court Kills Democrat Gerrymander appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
