Authored By: Lewis Wood on 11/3/2021

Election night has brought a seismic shift of the partisan alignment in the Commonwealth. In an update early this morning, Hunton Andrews Kurth says that in an election with record-breaking turnout, Republicans have won their first statewide election since 2009 (as was the case 12 years ago, when Republicans swept all three statewide offices).

Republicans have also won six seats and will take a narrow 51-49 majority in the House of Delegates pending review and potential recounts in several contests.
