Republican David Yancey wins in the 94th district

written by Jeanine Martin January 4, 2018

The Virginia Electoral Board has declared incumbent Republican David Yancey the winner in the 94th district after pulling his name from a bowl and ending the tie between Yancey and his Democrat opponent Shelly Simonds.  This win means the Republicans are again in control of the House of Delegates as they have been since the late 1990’s.  Their margin will be only two, 51-49, after losing 15 seats in the November ‘anti-Trump’ landslide election.

One issue remains, Yancey’s opponent Shelly Simonds can file immediately for a recount.  That could mean the House of Delegates will convene on January 10th with no delegate seated from the 94th district. Republicans would still be in control 50-49.

    Yancey should carry the bowl around with him everywhere he goes during the Assembly session

  • Ken Reid

    I hope all those teapartty ideology purity types who have denounced Yancey as a RINO or squishy moderate will now appreciate the fact he did not concede and stood by his party to give it a majority in Richmond. We are stronger united than divided and need to give thanks to Yancey and all Republicans regardless of their differences with the activists on certain issues, ie transportation funding which Yancey backed in 2013

    • John Massoud

      Tea party does not mean ideologically pure. But it does mean standing by your promises. And one must wonder if Yancey’s race would have been so close if he had filled out the VCDL survey

      • ArthurLeeTalley

        Well by that logic then I guess Dave Brat isn’t tea party either. Where’s his bills on cutting entitlements and fiscal responsibility? He can’t even get a post office named in his district. So who’s calling Dave to let him know he’s Establishment(tm)? And no… being legislatively impotent doesn’t count as being fiscally responsible.

    If Simonds willingly participated in a drawing, she shouldn’t contest the result?
