[Miller] News from Delegate Paula Miller

Statement by Delegate Paula Miller on House Redistricting Plan

Dear Constituents:

What has happened with redistricting in South Hampton Roads is unfortunate because Norfolk’s population merits 3 resident delegates just like Virginia Beach’s population merits two resident state senators. But, redistricting is a political problem, not a math problem.

I have been extremely honored to represent the citizens of the 87th House District for the past 7 years and have enjoyed tremendous bipartisan support from voters as was reflected in each of my four elections.

Rest assured the citizens of Ocean View can expect my continued dedicated service through the end of 2011.

As for my political future, I will keep all my options open.

Thank you,

Paula Miller

Interactive Redistricting Map

The General Assembly’s Division of Legislative Services has created an interactive tool aimed at informing Virginia residents as the redistricting process continues. On their website,  http://redistricting.dls.virginia.gov/, you are able to view current House, Senate, and Congressional districts in street and aerial views. Once more information is available, constituents will be able to make comments and post concerns on the map, and see how the various districts will change. I hope that this will help clarify some confusion as this very complicated process continues.
