Former US President Donald Trump claimed that a vote approving a congressional redistricting plan favoring Democrats was 'rigged.' This follows efforts by a county judge to block the measure, which voters supported in a referendum.

US President Donald Trump on Wednesday alleged without evidence that a Virginia vote approving a congressional redistricting plan favouring Democrats was “rigged,” as a county judge moved to block the measure. Voters backed the referendum on Tuesday, a change that could help Democrats flip up to four Republican-held House seats.
