Incumbent McPike Claims Victory In Senate District 29 Primary

WOODBRIDGE, VA — Incumbent state Sen. Jeremy McPike declared victory in the Democratic primary in Virginia's 29th district. His challenger, Elizabeth Guzman, conceded over the weekend.

McPike will face either Nikki Baldwin or Maria Martin in the general election in November. The Republican primary between Baldwin and Martin is still too close to call.

On social media, McPike said he looks forward to continuing to represent the 29th district, which includes eastern Prince William County and part of Stafford County.

"I appreciate the gracious call from Delegate Guzman conceding the race and for running a spirited race focused on the communities we represent," McPike said. "I'm looking forward to continuing to meet with voters and earn support in every corner of this district."

On Facebook, Guzman urged her supporters to vote for McPike in November.

"Fighting for working families and our progressive values in the House of Delegates has been the honor of my life, and I am proud of all we have accomplished together," Guzman said. "I am grateful for the more than 6,000 people who voted for me, and I ask them to back Senator Jeremy McPike in November."
