On episode twelve of the Black Virginia News podcast Lauren Burke and Maurice Hawkins will discuss twelve races for the Virginia House of Delegates that will decide which party wins the majority. 

Election Day 2023 is 115 days away. Democrats and Republicans are gearing up for what will be a tough battle for control of the Virginia General Assembly. A historic number of African Americans are on the ballot for November and a historic number will serve in the Virginia General Assemble in 2024. Even though Republicans currently control the Virginia House and Democrats control the Senate it is by very narrow margins. Redistricting has brought an air of unpredictability to many of the 2023 races. After a June 20, 2023 primary day full of surprises, more are sure to come.
