President Donald Trump is refusing to accept yet another election defeat for his party and re-running the same playbook of false and outrageous allegations of fraud after Virginia voters approved a mid-decade redistricting referendum that heavily favors Democrats.
Writing on Truth Social, Trump on Wednesday screamed in all caps that a “RIGGED ELECTION” had taken place in Virginia despite there being absolutely no evidence of any irregularities or fraud in the conduct of the plebiscite the previous evening in which 1,575,288 voters cast ballots in favor of a constitutional amendment which permits the implementation of new districts drawn by Virginia’s Democratic-led General Assembly, bypassing an independent, bipartisan commission which has drawn district lines since 2020.
