Eugene Vindman, a Democrat and former Trump administration official, has won the House race in Virginia's seventh congressional district, defeating Republican Derrick Anderson. Vindman's victory is significant for Democrats as they aim to regain a majority in the House, although Republicans still hold a narrow lead overall. Vindman, known for his role in Trump's first impeachment, focused his campaign on issues like abortion access and civil service reform. Despite his success, Republicans are slightly favored to maintain control of the House.
