Elaine Luria, Abigail Spanberger and Jennifer Wexton were all elected to Congress in 2018. All three are top targets of the GOP in this election cycle. In the 2nd District in Hampton roads, Luria is facing state senator Jennifer Kiggans. Spanberger is running against Prince William County Supervisor Yesli Vega. And Wexton faces retired Navy officer Hung Cao. Polls in Virginia close at 7 p.m.
