Republican Congressman J. “Rob” Wittman (incumbent) has been at the forefront of the local races, participating in debates and forums like the one in October at University of Mary Washington.

Incumbent Sen. Timothy M. Kaine (D) has not been afraid to voice his opinion on controversy, most recently in his push to gain federal protection for school drinking water.

The Manassas City Council is made up of seven members, and this year, three seats are up for grabs. Michelle Davis-Younger is one of six looking to fill a seat.
Two Democrats — Ken Elston and Rex Parr — and three Republicans — Amalfi Arias, Marc Aveni and Theresa Coates Ellis — are also in the running.
Back in November 2017, Peter O’Hanlon won his seat on the Manassas School Board, unopposed. Before that, he was appointed to fill the vacant seat held by Pamela J. Sebesky, who resigned to serve on the City Council.
