American legislative district From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Virginia's 1st Senate district is one of 40 districts in the Senate of Virginia.
Since the 2023 Virginia Senate election, the state senator has been Republican Timmy French.
It had been represented by Democrat Monty Mason since his victory in a 2016 special election following the death of fellow Democrat John Miller.[3]
District 1 is located in the Hampton Roads metropolitan area in southeastern Virginia, including all of Williamsburg and parts of Hampton, Newport News, Suffolk, James City County, and York County.[3]
The district overlaps with Virginia's 1st, 2nd, and 3rd congressional districts, and with the 76th, 92nd, 93rd, 94th, 95th, and 96th districts of the Virginia House of Delegates.[4]
