Virginia’s Wild Primary Races | Washington DC News

Virginia’s primary election next week is heating up with high-stakes races across key districts. In the fiercely contested 7th District, three Republicans are battling to unseat the incumbent Democrat, while in the 10th, three GOP challengers aim to topple a first-term Democrat. The 8th District, traditionally Democratic, sees a seasoned incumbent facing internal Democratic challenges despite his fundraising edge. Elsewhere, the 1st and 2nd Districts could be pivotal: seven Democrats vie to flip the 1st’s GOP seat, and a former rep joins Democrats targeting the 2nd’s incumbent. With turnout likely lower due to the late primary date, voters are weighing GOP loyalty to the former president versus new directions — and Democrats are split between center-left pragmatism and progressive momentum.
