McDonnell to Approve Redistricting Plan

It appears the Potomac Communities will get a new Virginia House of Delegates seat.

Gov. Robert F. McDonnell will sign off on a compromise between the Virginia Senate and House of Representatives that would shift the state’s 2nd House District to the Potomac Communities.

“I thank the General Assembly for passing this new redistricting plan. I will sign this legislation as soon as it reaches my desk. The plan as passed does address most of the criteria I outlined in my veto letter, and ensures that the elected members of the legislative branch fulfill their constitutional obligation to draw our electoral lines every ten years,” stated McDonnell in a statement.
