From Rachel Schilke
Democratic retired Army Lt. Col. Eugene Vindman defeated Republican Derrick Anderson in the open race for Virginia’s 7th Congressional District in a close race that took nearly a day to determine the winner.
The Associated Press called the race for Vindman at 6:24 p.m. EST on Wednesday with 98% of the vote counted. Vindman led Anderson 51.1% to 48.9%.
Vindman, a retired army lieutenant colonel, and his brother Alexander Vindman are known for being the key whistleblowers who led to former President Donald Trump’s first impeachment.
