If the people decide that redheads shouldn't drive, the judiciary would rightfully step in.
We're not a democracy.

The vote is irrelevant. It violates the clear and plain text of the Virginia constitution, and therefore should have never come to a vote in the first place.

They should appeal this ruling to the SCOTUS

Legal experts, including former Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, had warned from the beginning that the process violated multiple provisions of the Virginia Constitution, including improper timing and notice requirements, as well as the misleading way Democrats framed the question to trick voters. The Supreme Court clearly agreed, ruling the whole thing invalid.
The high court ruled that the entire process Democrats used to ram the ballot measure through was unconstitutional, violating the plain language of Virginia’s Constitution and tainting the narrow “yes” vote from last month’s special election.

If the "will of the voters" is determined to be unconstitutional (US or state), then it can't stand. I'm sure in the 1950's and 1960's the "will of the voters" in Alabama, Mississippi, ect would have (and probably was) been to mandate school segregation and segregation in other aspects of society. But if that was determined to be in violation of the Constitution then the will of the voters could not stand (and didn't)

Democrats are so worthless, they can't even push through a map. They should have just rammed it through their state legislation like all these republican states are doing.

Wow! Someone keep a close eye on the AG of Virginia. he might try to kill some people soon.

That’s the problem. There is a very specific sequence that the VA constitution lays out. The court said Article XII, Section 1 requires “two separate legislative sessions with an intervening election of the House of Delegates before they can put it before the voters to approve or reject amendments to the constitution.. in this case, by the time the first legislative vote took place on October 31, 2025 the voting in the intervening election had already begun on September 19, 2025. So by the time it passed the first legislative hurdle over 40 percent of the vote had already been cast.

Well, since you're too dumb to figure it out, here it is: It means that the ignorant, lying, cheating, jackass Dems don't get to steal another one.
Does that help you understand?

You need to sit this one out. Your comment proves that you have absolutely no idea or clue as to the numerous issues involved with this case. Go do your due diligence and research. Until then, please sit down and just shut up.

The past month, or so, of 'Fridays' have been some of my favorites; with news like this thread is giving us.
Now, it's only a matter of time before the Democrats state they will proceed anyway... because of 'fairness'.

correct. Tardzana is concerned about the wrong "activists". He should be worried about the ones who lied to get elected, then went about defiling the states constitution with ideas such as these.

Dems are dumb and can’t read or don’t understand their state’s constitution.
This is why they act so lawless on every issue.

I'm glad the good guys won in this case. A lot was at stake here. However, I am concerned and angry that this was decided by a 4-3 vote instead of a 7-0 vote. This case is so obviously tainted and in violation of the Virginia Constitution that Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder could see it, but obviously, 3 Va justices couldn't see it. This is concerning. Very concerning.

Yeah "negating the will of the voters" is a stupid argument here. What if 51% of a state voted to re-establish slavery, would the Democrats be screaming about "activism by the imperial judiciary" when that was struck down? Voters don't get to override the state or federal constitutions.
