The two women running for the Democratic nomination in the June 11 primary to represent Virginia’s 88th House of Delegates district have something in common. Both Kecia Evans and Jessica Foster have said that they were motivated to run in part to help Virginia ratify the Equal Rights Amendment.
The first-time Democratic candidate for the 88th District seat in the Virginia House of Delegates lists education, transportation and criminal justice reform among her top issues. Kecia S. Evans, 41, who lives in Stafford County, and Jessica H. Foster, 38, who lives near Remington, will seek their party’s nomination in a June 11 primary. The winner will face Republican Del. Mark Cole in the Nov. 5 general election.
