BREAKING: The Supreme Court of Virginia has denied the Attorney General’s Motion for Emergency Stay in RNC v. Koski - the one where he didn’t quote the ballot language. One sentence. No dissent. No partial relief. “Upon consideration whereof, the Court denies the motion.” What this means in plain terms: Jay Jones’ outside counsel from California asked the Court to allow the election process to proceed pending the rulings on the merits of the gerrymandering cases. The Court said “no.” This stops the election from being certified for now. The same Supreme Court that allowed the referendum to go forward in March, so voters could be heard, has now declined to override a final judgment finding the constitutional amendment process defective. Strong signal that process matters in Virginia. The Attorney General asked the Court of Virginia to set aside a final order that exposed a ballot question he would not quote, an Article XII timeline he had to redefine, and a 1912 case that did not say what he needed it to say. The Supreme Court said “no.”

This is only a ruling on the “stay”, not on the merits of the case.

They chose not to be rushed into making a decision, that’s all.
