A legal challenge to Virginia’s redistricting amendment was argued Monday before the state’s Supreme Court, with the court considering whether lawmakers followed the state constitution’s requirements for placing the measure on the ballot.

Virginian voters last week approved a constitutional amendment that would redraw the state’s Congressional map, aimed at favoring Democrats.
