RICHMOND, Va. — Democratic candidates for the Virginia House of Delegates more than doubled their Republican counterparts in fundraising over the last two months, bolstering their efforts to flip control of the narrowly divided chamber this November. Democrats currently have a 51-49 majority.

From April 1 through June 5, Democratic House candidates raised a combined $4.6 million, compared to $2.1 million for Republicans, according to campaign finance reports filed this week.

The fundraising advantage is particularly pronounced in some of the state’s most competitive districts — many of which were decided by razor-thin margins in 2023 and are once again shaping up to be major battlegrounds.
