\u2018Don\u2019t Fairfax Me\u2019: Northern Virginians fight redistricting plan<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

As the special election that will determine the fate of a plan to redraw Virginia\u2019s congressional districts approaches, the state\u2019s largest jurisdiction has started being referenced as a verb in messaging opposing the initiative.\n<\/p>\n

Signs that say, \u201cDon\u2019t Fairfax Me\u201d and \u201cVote No\u201d started appearing in rural parts of Virginia, Cardinal News<\/a> reported. And on social media, Del. Wren Williams, whose district includes several counties in the southwestern portion of the state, defined \u201cFairfaxphobia.\u201d<\/p>\n

Early voting has been underway for weeks, but on April 21, voters will decide whether to OK a plan that would redraw Virginia\u2019s congressional map. Currently, the state has elected six Democrats and five Republicans across its 11 districts. The proposed map could give Democrats a 10-1 advantage, experts say.<\/p>\n

Virginia Democrats argue the step comes in response to President Donald Trump\u2019s push for redistricting in Republican-led states. Republicans have been critical of the effort.<\/p>\n

Williams is describing \u201cFairfaxphobia\u201d as a fear that political power concentrated in Fairfax County will make decisions for the whole state and create policies impacting some communities that they can\u2019t afford.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t want to be Fairfax County,\u201d Williams told WTOP. \u201cWe don\u2019t want skyscrapers. I don\u2019t want to have to go somewhere outside and walk around to find some patches of grass to touch. I am interested in rural life, a little bit easier, a little bit simpler, a little bit more laid back, not as fast paced.\u201d<\/p>\n

As part of the proposed map, Williams said, \u201cat least five districts run up and split up Fairfax County, which will eventually lead to five sitting congressional members from the county of Fairfax, and that\u2019s just not representative of the entirety of the commonwealth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jeannette, a longtime Northern Virginia resident, said people who live in the northern part of the state \u201care seen as an anomaly, maybe to the rest of Virginia, given our, I think, collective more liberal leaning. And I understand why they\u2019re saying that, but I think we should separate that from the goal of the referendum.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dave Lincoln, meanwhile, said Friday he hadn\u2019t heard about the signs in rural parts of the state but, \u201cI guess it\u2019s \u2014 we are what we are.\u201d<\/p>\n

Senate Majority Leader Scott Surovell called the campaign disappointing, because \u201cFairfax County does a lot for the entire state. If it wasn\u2019t for Fairfax, our state would have the economy of Mississippi.\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u201cDon\u2019t Fairfax Me\u201d signs say they\u2019re paid for and authorized by a political action committee called \u201cNew Vision VA.\u201d Dominion Energy made a $25,000 donation to the PAC, according to the Virginia Public Access Project.<\/p>\n

Yves Fischer, who lives in Alexandria, said the messaging and advertising on the redistricting referendum are confusing.<\/p>\n

For Tiffany, \u201cI guess they\u2019re saying \u2018Don\u2019t Fairfax\u2019 Virginia, because obviously we are a much more educated, classy, professional, employed area, and we, of course, are going to vote \u2018yes\u2019 on this.\u201d<\/p>\n

In Springfield on Friday afternoon, Ann said she hadn\u2019t seen or heard about the signs, but, \u201cIt should be a big \u2018no.\u2019 It\u2019s not right. It\u2019s not fair to most Virginians.\u201d<\/p>\n
