Live Results: Virginia midterm primaries

The congressional primaries will take place using the commonwealth's existing district boundaries. Voters approved a more Democratic-friendly map in April, but Virginia's highest court invalidated the new boundaries less than three weeks later. The failed effort to enact a new Virginia map was in response to a largely successful push by President Donald Trump and state lawmakers in several Republican-controlled states like Texas and Missouri to redraw their congressional maps ahead of schedule and boost their party's chances of maintaining their fragile U.S.
