With Rob Wittman out of the House of Delegates and into DC, Virginia Democrats can take solace in knowing that they'll likely pick up his seat in the state House. From the WaPo last week:
Former Del. Albert C. Pollard Jr., who narrowly lost his Senate bid this year, said today he will likely run for his old state House seat if Del. Robert J. Wittman (R-Westmoreland) is elected to Congress next week. [...]
If he runs, Pollard would be a heavy favorite to win Wittman's state House seat. In this year's Senate race, Pollard received 57 percent of the vote in the portion of the district that includes his old House seat.
If he wins, Democrats would pick up a House seat and increase their margin to 45. |
