Virginia Primaries Set for High-Stakes Races | Richmond News
from Richmond News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Virginia heads back to the polls Tuesday for a high-stakes primary election that could shape the state’s congressional delegation — all while fighting over old district maps after a court tossed out a more Democratic-friendly redistricting plan. The spotlight’s on Virginia’s 2nd District, where Rep. Jen Kiggans faces off against her former foe, Democrat Elaine Luria — who’s leading in fundraising. In the 1st District, seven Democrats are vying to unseat GOP Rep. Rob Wittman in a crowded race. Meanwhile, freshman Rep. Eugene Vindman is running unopposed but will face the winner of a three-way Republican battle. Governor Spanberger is backing key Democratic contenders. At the top, Sen. Mark Warner cruises to the Democratic nomination for his fourth term, facing one of three Republicans in November. Polls close at 7 PM ET — and early results will start rolling in soon.
