RICHMOND, Va. – A panel of judges has selected eight citizens who will join eight legislators on a bipartisan commission that will redraw Virginia’s legislative boundaries for the next decade.
A referendum approved by voters in November creates the 16-member commission to draw lines for Virginia’s seats in Congress and the General Assembly.
The judges selected four names each from lists submitted by Democratic and Republican legislative leaders.
