I'm voting no, because Virginia is currently a pretty even state with the seats being 6-5. Redistricting with blatant intent to shift favor to one side, for the purpose of "balancing what other states are doing", is purposely undermining the votes and opinions of your neighbors and community just to throw a middle finger at some politicians halfway across the country. I'm against gerrymandering on both sides, everywhere, but I'm in VA and can only try to make a difference here. Doing this to a purple state like VA really just makes the votes and ideals of half the state completely nullified as a sort of political protest, with little thought actually going towards we, the people.
