VA-07 money
Virginia’s seventh congressional district is an open seat for this November’s general election after Rep. Abigail Spanberger, D-VA07, announced she would not be seeking reelection to instead run for governor in 2025.
Spanberger represented VA-07 since 2018.
She won reelection in 2022 under new district boundaries that removed most of what VA-07 encompassed in 2018 and 2020.
The district, which was previously mostly in Central Virginia, is now based in the northern part of the state.
A long list of candidates on both sides of the aisle have entered the race for this competitive seat, which could go to either party.
Spanberger won the first election with the new boundaries by five points in 2022.
However, according to an analysis from VPAP, Glenn Youngkin won the district by five points in 2021.
This will be one of the most competitive districts across the country in November, and money will be poured into each general election nominee as Republicans try to keep control of the House.
All of the candidates are reporting money raised, but some have clear financial advantages heading into the June primary elections.

Money in VA-10
Virginia’s tenth congressional district is an open seat after Rep. Jennifer Wexton announced last year that she would not seek reelection in 2024 for health reasons.
Wexton has represented the tenth since 2018 and won reelection in 2022 by seven points.
According to VPAP, 78% of the district’s voters come from Loudoun and Prince William Counties, an area that tends to support Democrats.
According to VPAP analysis, Terry McAuliffe (D) won VA-10 by 1.5 points in 2021, Tim Kaine (D) won it by 19 points in 2020, and Ralph Northam (D) won it by 10 points in 2017.
Candidates on both sides of the aisle are raising money as they seek the nomination to run in November.
A long list of Democrats are running for the seat that they could potentially hold with relative ease for years to come — while Republicans are hoping to capitalize on President Joe Biden’s low approval ratings and flip this seat.
