共和党人道格拉斯·奥利万特预计将赢得弗吉尼亚州第7国会选区共和党初选。他将在11月与民主党众议员尤金·芬德曼展开较量。
奥利万特曾任职于白宫国家安全委员会，毕业于西点军校。芬德曼也曾在国家安全委员会担任律师，他与双胞胎兄弟亚历克斯·芬德曼因在2019年特朗普总统首次弹劾案中发挥的作用而受到全国关注。
该选区被视为摇摆选区，尽管该选区最近两任美国众议员都是民主党人。芬德曼在2024年以不到3个百分点的优势击败共和党对手。
根据弗吉尼亚公共访问项目在初选前汇编的联邦选举数据，芬德曼已筹集超过1200万美元，而他潜在的共和党对手筹款额均未接近100万美元。
该选区范围从里士满北部延伸至弗吉尼亚州北部部分地区。今年5月，弗吉尼亚州最高法院推翻了该州选民在4月通过的重划选区修正案。该修正案本允许在十年中期重新划分选区界限。根据美国人口普查局的数据，该选区家庭收入中位数为113690美元，高于弗吉尼亚州全州家庭收入中位数。
芬德曼是退役美国陆军军官，其竞选纲领聚焦于解决生活成本问题、对公职人员实施更严格的道德标准、支持军人和退伍军人，同时反对特朗普政府对伊朗的战争处理方式。奥利万特也将生活成本问题作为竞选重点，包括能源价格和住房负担能力，并表示该选区需要“更多优质就业岗位”。

Douglas Ollivant projected to win GOP primary in Virginia’s 7th District, setting up race against Rep. Eugene Vindman

Republican Douglas Ollivant is projected to win the GOP primary for Virginia’s 7th Congressional District. He will face Democratic Rep. Eugene Vindman in November.
Ollivant is a former official at the White House’s National Security Council who graduated from West Point. Vindman also served as a lawyer on the National Security Council, and he and his twin brother, Alex Vindman, drew national attention for their role in President Trump’s first impeachment in 2019.
The district is considered a battleground district, although its two most recent U.S. representatives have been Democrats. Vindman beat his Republican opponent by less than three points in 2024.
Vindman has raised over $12 million, while his potential Republican challengers didn’t come close to $1 million, according to federal election data compiled by the Virginia Public Access Project ahead of the primaries.
The district spans from north of Richmond to parts of northern Virginia. In May, the Virginia Supreme Court overturned a redistricting amendment that the state’s voters had passed in April. The amendment would have allowed the districts to be drawn mid-decade. The median household income in the district, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, is $113,690, above the median household income for the commonwealth.
Vindman, a retired U.S. Army officer, is campaigning on addressing the cost of living, holding public officials to stricter ethics standards and supporting service members and veterans, while opposing Mr. Trump’s handling of the war with Iran. Ollivant has also run on cost-of-living issues, including energy prices and housing affordability, and has said the district needs “more jobs, better jobs.”
