Letter to the Editor: Unconstitutional Partisan Gerrymander

I need to be completely honest with you about what is happening right now. A Virginia court has ruled the Democrats’ new congressional map an unconstitutional partisan gerrymander. Virginia Democrats put it on the April 21st ballot anyway. They are asking voters to ratify an act a court declared illegal — because they are betting that low turnout in a special election will carry them across the finish line before anyone can stop them. Nonpartisan political scientists have confirmed what we have argued from the beginning: this is the single most partisan gerrymander in the history of the United States. The new map hands Democrats a 10-1 congressional advantage in a state where President Trump won over 46% of the vote — because it was drawn with one purpose, to steal four Republican seats before the midterms begin. If this map passes, the midterm elections may be effectively over before a single November vote is cast.
Here’s what your contribution does today.
$50 puts our ad in front of 500 Virginia voters who haven’t seen the truth yet.
$250 funds a full day of digital outreach to low propensity voters.
$1,000 helps us counter Soros and Obama dollar-for-dollar in a single media market for 24 hours.
The early voting data shows this election on a knife’s edge. Democrats have the money. Obama is in every media market. George Soros has written the biggest check of this cycle. And they are spending every dollar of it to drive a YES vote before April 21.
Here is what I know: when Virginia voters learn the facts about this map, they vote NO. We have the message. We have the ads. We just need the resources to get them in front of voters before the polls close on April 21.
DONATE
We cannot allow Democrats to rig the midterm elections before the first vote is cast. 
Please, chip in whatever you can afford. We don’t have a minute to waste.
