I fear the virginia referendum to redraw the maps will fail. [View all]

In my corner of southeastern Virginia ( tidewater area) all I see are signs urging people to vote no.
Today I got this in the mail.



It is from a republican pac. They are using Barack Obama to make it look like its the right thing to do for democrats.

It is not the first time they do that.

I suspect it will work. As usual, our party is useless in pushing back. I have yet to see a mailer or a sign advocating for it.

All I saw is reports that the effort gathered record amounts of money.

I guess its going to expensive political consultants instead of being spend to fight the dishonest information pushed by the GOP.
