Campaign 2010

Help elect Republicans in Northern Virginia!

Fairfax County voters will be voting for members of Congress in 2010. Democrats currently hold two of the three Congressional seats in Fairfax, so there's an opportunity for the GOP to pick up one or more seats.

Republican nominees in the 8th and 11th Districts will be selected by primary elections on Tuesday, June 8. (In the 10th District, Cong. Frank Wolf was unopposed for renomination.) The general election will be Tuesday, November 2.

In addition, two special elections were held in early 2010:

• Jan. 12 - in the 37th Senate District, to select a successor to Atty. Gen. Ken Cuccinelli. Republican Steve Hunt narrowly lost to Democrat Dave Marsden.
• Mar. 2 - in the 41st Delegate District, to elect a successor to Marsden. Republican Kerry Bolognese lost by less than 0.5% to Democrat Eileen Filler-Corn.
