Loudoun County 2024 Primary Voter Guide: Candidates, How To Vote

ASHBURN, VA — Tuesday is primary election day in Ashburn and the rest of Loudoun County. Loudoun County voters will have congressional races on the ballot to determine candidates for November's general election.

While Virginia already chose its primary candidates for U.S. president in the March Super Tuesday election, June's primary focuses on congressional elections and local offices where applicable. Loudoun County's local elections happened in 2023 and will not be on the ballot in 2024.

What's on the Ballot

On Tuesday, Loudoun County will have a dual primary — a Democratic primary for the 10th congressional district and a Republican primary for the 10th congressional district and a U.S. Senate seat.

Loudoun County is within the 10th congressional district, currently represented by Rep. Jennifer Wexton. Wexton (D-Loudoun) is not seeking re-election after receiving a progressive supra-nuclear palsy diagnosis. Republican and Democratic primaries will be held to choose 10th congressional district candidates for the November general election. According to the Virginia Public Access Project, the 10th congressional district is a competitive district up for election.

There are a slew of candidates in both parties vying for the seat. Democratic primary candidates include Eileen Filler-Corn, Suhas Subramanyam, Atif Qarni, Dan Helmer, Marion Devoe, Krystle Kaul, Jennifer Boysko, Adrian Pokharel, Michelle Maldonado, Mark Leighton, David Reid and Travis Nembhard. Republican candidates are Mike Clancy, Alex Isaac, Aliscia Andrews and Manga Anantatmula.
