District 88

About the District

Virginia’s newly created 88th House district is one of 100 seats in the Virginia House of Delegates, the lower house of the state’s bicameral legislature. Located in southern, coastal Virginia, District 88 encompasses the beautiful city of Portsmouth.

Portsmouth is home to the Norfolk Navy Shipyard and Naval Medical Center Portsmouth, both of which are historic and active US Navy facilities. Tourists are drawn to the city’s Old Towne Historic District, which features one of the largest collections of historically significant homes.

Delegate Scott’s colleagues are running in less reliably blue seats across the Commonwealth and they need all the assistance they can get. To help them, I’m asking all to support Delegate Scott’s Leadership PAC. This will help us take back the majority.
