Beckwith, who consistently led in fundraising, beat candidates Julie Perry and Anthony Suttles. Sam Wong, who appeared on some ballots, had already dropped out of the race by election day.

By a slim margin, Virginians voted in April to approve a referendum allowing for a special redistricting process. The referendum was sparked by a partisan redistricting process kicked off by Texas and picked up by other largely Republican states, before some Democratic states joined.
However, after a bitter fight and a narrow victory for Democrats, who largely favored redistricting, the Supreme Court of Virginia voided the referendum results on procedural grounds, leaving the state's districts unchanged.
In Virginia's eighth district, incumbent Don Beyer defeated four challengers, campaigning as a tested leader.
Beyer touted his work to protect federal workers, promote clean energy and regulate artificial intelligence. He had the support of Virginia’s Democratic political establishment and Democratic-aligned interest groups, while facing opponents who pitched themselves as anti-establishment, generational change agents.
Republican Tony Sabio will face Beyer in November.
