Analysis Summary
Virginia held a special election on April 21, 2026 on a constitutional amendment that would temporarily allow the state legislature to adopt new congressional district maps through 2030, bypassing the existing bipartisan redistricting commission. Republicans argued the new map would flip the current 6-5 split to heavily Democratic; supporters framed it as countering gerrymandering. The amendment passed with 56% voter approval, shifting Virginia's House delegation significantly toward Democrats in the 2026 midterms.
