Eugene Vindeman elected to House

The Democrat and former Trump administration official Eugene Vindman has won his House race against the Republican and former army green beret Derrick Anderson in Virginia’s seventh congressional district, representing a key victory for Democrats as they cling to the last glimmers of hope of regaining a majority in the lower chamber.

When the Associated Press called the race at 6.24pm ET on Wednesday, almost 24 hours after polls closed in Virginia, Vindman led Anderson by two points in the seventh district, which stretches from the exurbs of Washington DC to more rural counties in the western and central parts of the state.

With his victory sealed, Vindman will now go on to replace the Democratic congresswoman Abigail Spanberger, who chose to run for governor rather than seek re-election, when the new House is seated in January. Although the seat does not represent a pick-up for Democrats, Vindman’s defeat could have doomed the party’s broader prospects of winning the House, where Republicans currently hold a narrow majority.
