Mike Clancy joins race for Virginia's 10th
The retirement of Rep. Jennifer Wexton (D-VA) has opened up a seat in Northern Virginia. While Democrats have held the seat since 2019, Republicans are eying a pickup opportunity. One of the Republican candidates, attorney and business executive Mike Clancy is Jim's guest on "The Final 5" to talk about the race and the key issues in the Loudoun-area district.
Republican voters chose Clancy from a field of four candidates.
Hung Cao wins GOP nom in Virginia Senate primary
Hung Cao is the projected winner of the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate in Virginia's primary election.
Loudoun County makes up a majority of the 10th Congressional District, which also includes parts of Prince William County and a sliver of Fairfax County.
Subramanyam is a former policy adviser for the Obama administration who represents parts of Loudoun County.
Wexton announced her retirement after being diagnosed with a debilitating form of Parkinson's called Progressive Supra-nuclear Palsy.
Wexton’s seat was held for decades by Rep. Frank Wolf, R-Va., from the Reagan Revolution into the Obama era, when moderate Rep. Barbara Comstock, R-Va., a former aide, succeeded him.
In 2018, Wexton defeated Comstock and the district has trended more and more blue ever since.
The Cook Political Report rates the district as D+6, predicting a likely Democratic hold in November.
