华盛顿4月22日路透电 — 美国当地时间周三，弗吉尼亚州一场旨在重划国会选区、被指有利于民主党人的公投遭一名县法官叫停，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普在毫无证据的情况下指控此次投票“舞弊”。
周二，弗吉尼亚州选民通过了一项重划选区的公投，该公投或帮助民主党人拿下美国众议院中最多4个共和党把持的席位，并提升民主党在11月中期选举中掌控众议院的几率。

身为共和党人的特朗普在社交媒体帖文中写道：“昨晚在伟大的弗吉尼亚联邦发生了一场舞弊选举！”并将结果归咎于邮寄选票。
此次发帖是特朗普最新一次质疑他不认可的选举结果：他在未提供任何证据的情况下，将普通计票、尤其是邮寄选票的统计过程描述为舞弊证据。
该公投已经面临多起法律挑战。弗吉尼亚州最高法院允许公投继续进行，但最终可能宣布其无效，使投票结果失去意义。
在另一桩大概率也会上诉至州最高法院的案件中，一名弗吉尼亚县法官应共和党全国委员会提起的诉讼，于周三叫停了新地图，裁定议员们未遵守重划选区宪法修正案的相关规定。

弗吉尼亚州民主党总检察长杰伊·琼斯表示，他将请求州上诉法院推翻巡回法院法官小杰克·赫尔利的裁决。该裁决称公投措辞“公然具有误导性”，并阻止州政府认证周二的公投结果。
弗吉尼亚州的此次公投是美国全国范围内重划选区军备竞赛的最新转折。特朗普与得克萨斯州共和党人去年启动了这场竞赛，旨在捍卫该党在11月中期选举中微弱的众议院多数席位。
尽管数十次法庭挑战均以失败告终，但特朗普始终拒不承认自己在2020年总统选举中失利，一直试图削弱民众对投票程序的信任。
2020年败给总统乔·拜登后，特朗普 falsely 谎称存在大规模选举舞弊，并支持推翻选举结果的行动，包括施压时任副总统迈克·彭斯不要认证选举结果。
此后，法院、州选举官员以及他本人的政府均未发现有规模足以改变选举结果的舞弊证据。
近几个月来，特朗普政府加大力度重提2020年大选存在大规模选民欺诈的说法。司法部正在获取大量州选民数据，而联邦调查局已经重新调查佐治亚州等关键摇摆州的旧选举舞弊指控。

WASHINGTON, April 22 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump claimed on Wednesday without evidence that a Virginia vote to redraw the state’s congressional map in a way that favors Democrats had been “rigged,” as a county judge moved to block the measure.
On Tuesday, Virginia voters approved a redistricting referendum that could help Democrats flip as many as four Republican-held seats in the U.S. House of Representatives and boost Democrats’ chances of winning control of the chamber in November.

Trump, a Republican, wrote in a social media post that “A RIGGED ELECTION TOOK PLACE LAST NIGHT IN THE GREAT COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA!” and blamed mail-in ballots for the outcome.
The post was the latest example of Trump casting doubt on election outcomes he dislikes by portraying ordinary vote counting, particularly the tabulation of mail ballots, as evidence of fraud without offering proof.
The referendum has already faced multiple legal challenges. The Supreme Court of Virginia allowed the referendum to proceed but may end up invalidating it, making the results moot.
And in a separate case that also looks likely to end back up at the Supreme Court, a Virginia county judge, in response to a lawsuit filed by the Republican National Committee, blocked the new map on Wednesday, ruling lawmakers had not followed the rules for the constitutional amendment that the map redrawing required.

Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones, a Democrat, said he would ask the state’s Court of Appeals to overturn Circuit Court Judge Jack Hurley Jr.’s order, which called the ballot language “flagrantly misleading” and blocked the state from certifying Tuesday’s referendum results.
The referendum in Virginia is the latest twist in the nation’s redistricting arms race, which Trump and Texas Republicans began last year as they sought to defend the party’s slim House majority during the midterm elections in November.
Trump, who has not accepted that he lost the 2020 presidential election despite having failed in dozens of courts to challenge the results, has consistently sought to undermine faith in the voting process.
After his 2020 loss to President Joe Biden, Trump falsely claimed widespread fraud and backed efforts to overturn the result, including pressuring his then vice president, Mike Pence, to not certify the election results.
Courts, state election officials and his own administration have since found no evidence of fraud on a scale that would have changed the outcome.
In recent months, the Trump administration has stepped up its effort to revive claims of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election. The Justice Department is seeking a swath of state voter data, while the FBI has reopened old election-fraud allegations in battleground states including Georgia.
