Virginia Democrats are considering a plan to lower the mandatory retirement age for state Supreme Court justices from 75 to 54, effectively forcing the current justices to retire. This would allow the Democratic-controlled legislature to appoint new justices who could potentially overturn the court’s recent decision invalidating new redistricting maps. The plan has faced criticism from some Democrats, but others argue it is necessary to preserve the will of the voters.

It would be fruitless, the US Supreme Court has ruled on racial gerrymandering.

But this shows the depravity these dimrats are capable of. Don't like the result? Rewrite the rules! Move the goalposts!
