Democrats seek House control in Virginia primaries
The AP reports Democrats in Virginia press for House control starting with primaries. In the 10th District six Democrats contest to face incumbent Barbara Comstock, seen as vulnerable after 2016. The 2nd and 7th District races feature Elaine Luria and Karen Mallard, Dave Brat’s challenger prospects, and a slate including Spanberger, Ward, and others. Candidates' backgrounds span Navy service, CIA, teaching, and business, with fundraising highs cited.
