Charlottesville is the beacon of blue in a sea of red.

Cville always goes very, very blue.
That is a long-time, deep-red gerrymandered to hell district.

VA will be redrawing its districts next year due to a court order that challenged the current boundaries. That is why the 10th was red for so many years as it goes from Manassas through Fairfax and Loudoun and then into Winchester. We will fix it next year.
