Dems pick potential successor to DC's congressional delegate after decades-long incumbency

Robert White Jr. won the Democratic primary for Eleanor Holmes Norton’s non-voting congressional delegate seat in Washington, D.C. Norton, who held the position for 18 terms, announced her retirement, marking the first open-seat contest for the role in decades. The primary occurred under D.C.’s new ranked-choice voting system, with White advancing to the November general election against Republican and third-party challengers.
