Summary

A judge tells Virginia Democrats a referendum is illegal, it goes forward anyway, and then the election gets set aside. That’s where Good News Friday starts: not with hot takes, but with the uncomfortable truth that election integrity depends on boring things like timing rules, publication requirements, and ballot language voters can actually trust. We walk through what the Virginia redistricting fight means, why turnout still matters in off-year elections, and what we’ll be watching as the s...

This is the intersection of faith and culture. It's the Wall Builders show, and it's Friday,

0:10.6

so we've got a lot of good news to share with you today. If you're new to Wall Builders,

0:14.2

we call it Good News Friday. If you've been listening for a while, it's probably your

0:18.3

favorite day of the week to listen to Wall Builders. David Barton and Tim Barton, been collecting good news stories all week. I'm Rick Green, and we're going to rapid fire some good news at you. David Barton starting first. David, go for it, ma'am. Well, I'm going to start with something that happened earlier this week.

1:17.5

You know, there's oftentimes questions surrounding some of the processes in Democrat-controlled

1:26.9

territories, especially when there's mail-controlled territories,

1:28.4

especially when there's mail-in ballots,

1:30.1

and especially when there's late-night drop-as-off of mail-in ballots.

1:33.7

So just a caveat.

1:35.7

It's great there were so many numbers,

1:37.3

but kind of like, you know, with the Biden presidency,
