"Abigail Spanberger Takes Ball And Goes Home After Her Gerrymander Gambit Epically Failed".

Democratic Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger is telling her fellow party members it is time to move on from redistricting after her state’s highest court ruled her endorsed gerrymander was unconstitutional.

Spanberger told the New York Times in an interview published Friday that it is “outrageously premature” for her fellow Democrats to be focused on redistricting, calling the midterms ahead the “most consequential midterms” of her lifetime. This comes just a week after the United States Supreme Court declined to take up Virginia Democrats’ appeal following the state’s Supreme Court May 8 ruling that lawmakers violated the state’s constitutional procedural requirements by advancing the pro-gerrymander amendment after early voting had already begun.

Looks like she's desperately trying to wipe that dog turd off of her shoes, but people may not have such short memories as she thinks: 

Before courts nixed it, Spanberger strongly supported the gerrymander — which she signed into law herself — and the “yes” campaign to greenlight it at the ballot box. The gambit also received the support of former President Barack Obama.

There does seem to be one good thing that came out of all this (in addition to the gerrymandering attempt being defeated): 

A Washington Post poll released in early April found that Spanberger was less popular than each of the eight governors of Virginia before her, including both Democrats and Republicans.
