AP: Virginia voters narrowly pass redistricting referendum

Virginia voters have narrowly passed a redistricting referendum, amending the state's constitution to establish a bipartisan commission for drawing legislative and congressional districts. The new commission will comprise eight legislators and eight citizens. The change is expected to impact the state's electoral map. The referendum was held to address concerns over gerrymandering. The bipartisan commission aims to promote fair representation. The outcome is seen as a significant development in the state's electoral process.
