DC-AL: White (D) on track to succeed Holmes Norton as DC delegate

Democrat Robert White is projected to win the party’s primary for Washington, D.C.’s, nonvoting delegate to Congress, according to Decision Desk HQ.

D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton’s (D) decision to retire after 18 terms teed up a competitive race for the position that gives D.C. representation in the House. Delegates are allowed to participate in debates but barred from casting votes on the House floor.

White, an at-large member of the D.C. City Council, is on a glidepath to win the seat this fall in the city where roughly three-quarters of voters are registered Democrats, according to Board of Elections data.

The crowded Democratic race was the most expensive on record for the office.
