• Virginia court blocks voter-approved congressional redistricting referendum — On April 22, 2026, Judge Jack Hurley Jr of Tazewell County Circuit Court blocked Virginia from implementing new congressional maps approved by voters the previous day (51.5% to 48.5%). The maps would have replaced the state's non-partisan redistricting process with one favoring Democrats. The Republican National Committee had sued, arguing the referendum's timing and phrasing were illegal. Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones announced plans to appeal, asserting voters' will should prevail.
• Republican National Committee sued to invalidate Virginia redistricting referendum — The Republican National Committee, now controlled by Trump, filed suit challenging the validity of the Virginia redistricting referendum approved by voters on April 21, 2026. A Virginia judge ruled that both the constitutional amendment and the referendum were invalid, declaring that "any and all votes for or against the proposed constitutional amendment in the April 21, 2026 special election are ineffective" and prevented officials from certifying the results.
• Virginia Attorney General challenged court order invalidating redistricting referendum — Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones filed a challenge to the Virginia judge's order invalidating the redistricting referendum, arguing that "Virginia voters have spoken, and an activist judge should not have the power over the People's vote." Jones stated the office would defend the outcome of the April 21 election in court.

• Complaint filed: Common Cause v. U.S. Department of Justice (D.D.C. 1:26-cv-01352) — Common Cause, the Common Cause Education Fund, and four individual registered voters in Texas and Nebraska filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia challenging the Justice Department's policy of demanding unredacted statewide voter registration lists from nearly every state and the District of Columbia for compilation in a national voter registration system. The complaint alleges that the policy, issued pursuant to President Trump's March 25, 2025 Executive Order 14248, exceeds DOJ's statutory authority, violates the Elections Clause and Voter Qualifications Clause, and breaches the Privacy Act and Paperwork Reduction Act. Plaintiffs seek declaratory relief, vacatur, injunctive relief halting DOJ's data compilation and disclosure, and an order requiring deletion of already-collected data.
