Don Beyer won renomination in the 8th District, Joy Powers won the Democratic primary in the 9th District and retired Air Force Col. Dave Beckwith won the Republican primary in the 10th District. The Associated Press called each race Tuesday night. Luria defeated Dr. Nila Devanath, Patrick Mosolf and Bill Fleming with more than 80% of the vote, according to unofficial Virginia Department of Elections results. She will face Republican Rep.
