Virginia's 1st House of Delegates district is one of 100 seats in the Virginia House of Delegates, the lower house of the state's bicameral legislature. District 1 represents part of Arlington County. The seat is held by Democrat Patrick Hope.[1] Hope was first elected in 2009.
In the November 2017 election, Democrat Alicia Kallen ran against Kilgore.[2] It was the first time in a decade Kilgore had a challenger for the seat.[3] Kallen, 26, works at Norton Community Hospital.[2] However, she was unable to win the seat and Kilgore kept his position.
Due to the 2021 Redistricting, House of Delegates District 1 has been moved to Northern Virginia, encompassing part of Arlington County.
