The Court’s Special Masters did not look at incumbent addresses when drafting the new districts for the House of Delegates and the State Senate. As a result, many districts have two or more incumbents in place. Will some representatives move to an open district? Will some retire? Or will there be a slew of primaries across the state? It all remains to be seen, making next year and/or the following year very interesting.
