A special election to fill the term of the late Rep. A. Donald McEachin will be held Feb. 21, and at least two Democrats are already signaling they’ll get into the race to succeed him.
Voters in the heavily Democratic 4th District, which backed President Joe Biden over Donald Trump by more than 36 points in 2020, will pick between nominees selected by a party-run “firehouse primary” on Dec. 20, the Richmond Democratic Committee announced on Twitter Monday night.
McEachin died last month after a long battle with cancer, just weeks after he won a fourth term.
