A few things worth noting since you're in Lexington-area MA but asking about VA-08 — just to confirm this is the right district for you, that's Northern Virginia, not Massachusetts. If that's correct:

Beyer is running for re-election, with primaries for both parties set for August 4, 2026, and the general election on November 3, 2026.

He faces a contested Democratic primary this year against Mo Seifeldein, Michael Duffin, and Adam Dunigan, and Tony Sabio and others are running in the Republican primary.
