💨 Abstract

Voting of the Democratic replacement for the late Rep. Gerry Connolly's Fairfax County seat remains uncertain. Gubernatorial timing could benefit Republicans, but Democrats in the deep-blue district seem poised to hold the seat. Several Democratic candidates have emerged, each aiming to fill Connolly's substantial legacy. Key dates and processes for the special election are still pending. Democrats are preparing for a potential "firehouse primary" in July, while the Republican side has one announced candidate, Mike Van Meter.
