Elections for the Virginia House of Delegates are taking place in 2019. The primary is on June 11, 2019, and the general election is on November 5. The filing deadline for candidates is March 28, 2019.
Heading into the 2019 elections, the Republican Party has a 51-48 majority in the state house. Republicans also have a 21-19 majority in the State Senate. The governor is not up for election in 2019. If Republicans retain control of a least one chamber of the state legislature, the state will remain under divided government. If Democrats win both chambers of the legislature, they will obtain a trifecta.

Thanks for that information. Isn’t it ironic that Northam won by using an ad that claimed Gillespie was a racist.
I wish Gillespie had fought back.
Will this stuff have any bearing on state district and senate races? Well other than perhaps outing a bunch of clowns on both sides of the aisle that once wore blackface, I doubt it.
NOVA will pull the D lever no matter who it is, and the rest of the state may or may not follow suit.
