Another state where conservative areas have had it with being overrun by the leftists in the rest of the state. There have been murmurings the past few years of western Virginia counties also looking at joining West Virginia. https://thenewamerican.com/almost-heaven-west-virginia-three-maryland-counties-request-to-join-west-virginia/

Ignorant in what's needed for redistritctng, but what's stopping this from happening?
Is "We the People' truly dead? It is to me if we can't have free and fair elections.
From what I’ve read, both state legislatures and Congress have to approve it. West Virginia has already said they’d take western Maryland and western Virginia. The problem would be in getting the legislatures in Virginia and Maryland to approve it, then Congress. Even though the western counties are looked down upon by their state governments, I’m sure they’d want to hold on to them for tax revenue and to keep their numbers in the House. We’re nothing more than hillbilly, redneck pawns to them.
Thank you for the explanation. Yeah, I hear you ... we are all pawns one way or the other. I embrace my hilibiily, moonshine-making roots!
