Brief Filed in Virginia Case Over Whether Delegates Elected in 2021 Must Have Shortened Terms

On April 18, the Virginia voters who argued that members of the lower house of the legislature cannot serve until January 2024 filed this brief in Goldman v Brink, e.d., 3:21cv-420.

Members of the lower house of the Virginia legislature were elected in November 2021, from districts that were drawn using the 2010 census. Normally they would serve two-year terms, but some voters filed that it violates the U.S. Constitution to retain the old districts that long after the new 2020 census.
