Voters in the U.S. state of Virginia are casting their final ballots on a key measure that could reshape federal congressional districts — and potentially shift the balance of power in Washington.
The proposed changes could give an advantage to the Democratic Party, possibly helping them secure a majority in the United States House of Representatives, where control currently hinges on just a handful of seats.
At the same time, other states are pursuing their own redistricting efforts, backed by a broader push from the White House, aimed at creating districts more favorable to the Republican Party.
The outcome in Virginia could play a decisive role in shaping the political landscape ahead of upcoming elections.
