Republicans are mobilizing rural Virginia voters against a Democratic-backed redistricting referendum that could significantly shift the state's House delegation. National leaders from both parties are campaigning heavily as millions are spent on a battle that could determine control of the US House.
Coverage from far-right outlets consistently frames Hakeem Jeffries's campaign for the Virginia redistricting referendum. Outlets like KRDO and KESQ both report Jeffries characterizing the effort as a necessary measure to stop a 'MAGA power grab.' The uniform far-right lean of all reporting on this event results in a consistent framing of Jeffries's actions.
