Dear Friend,
Last week the special masters appointed by the Supreme Court of Virginia released a draft of newly redistricted maps for congress, the Virginia Senate, and the Virginia House of Delegates – you can review them here.
While the Court heard public comments during two sessions earlier this week on December 15 and 17, you can continue to submit public comments to redistricting@vacourts.gov until 1p.m. on Monday, December 20.
Public comments will be listed on the Courts’ website and must be germane to the topic of Virginia redistricting.
As you will see for the Richmond area, its composition is quite different from the current House district lines. As the map is currently drawn, I will be a candidate for the 78th district.
I want you to know that while we do not know what the final boundary lines will look like or when the next election will take place, I am all in and look forward to continuing serving my constituency in the best possible way.
If you would like to support me in my efforts to continue serving the Richmond area, you can do so here.
Please feel free to contact me if I can be helpful to you and your family by email at delegate.carr@betsycarr.org or by phone at 804-698-1169.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Wishing you and your loved ones the most enjoyable holidays.
Sincerely,
Betsy B. Carr
