RICHMOND, Va. (7News) — 7News spoke with Virginia Tech Political Analyst
Dr. Cayce Myers on Friday after the Virginia Supreme Court struck down a
measure to redraw the commonwealth's congressional districts. 

When asked if there was a path forward, Myers said he believes this is
the end of it. 

“Well, there may be some appeals that come out of this, but again, I
think that the chances of that really kind of depend on some unique
strategies. I feel like this may be the end of this discussion. The
Virginia Referendum voted in its constitutionality, but again, we’ll
just have to wait and see what the attorney general decides," Myers
said. 

"Well, this has really been a politically driven conversation. But when
the Court is evaluating it, it’s looking at the constitutional process
for referendums – which requires it to be passed in the delegates, there
to be an intervening election, and then passed again. And so the
intervening election, which already had early voting going on, was
really the question that the court was grappling with – and if you
listen to oral arguments, a lot of the questions were around that,"
Myers added.
