WASHINGTON — Democrat Garrett McGuire continues the “blue sweep” that’s been evident in special elections, beating Republican Christopher Cardiff to represent District 17.
McGuire is replacing Mark Sickles, who was tapped by Governor Abigail Spanberger to serve as Virginia’s secretary of finance.
McGuire will serve as the delegate for a district that includes Franconia, Huntington, Kingstowne, and Rose Hill.
He served as the chair of the Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board and the Board of United Community.
