Congresswomen Elaine Luria and Elissa Slotkin edged out their opponents in Virginia and Michigan races.
A veteran, a woman and a Jew, Elaine Luria came out victorious in a tight race for Virginia’s 2nd congressional district.
Elaine Luria is a retired Navy commander who once led a Passover seder on her battle carrier.
“I don’t want her to ask me that question in ten years, ‘What did you do in this trying time?’” Jewish candidate Elaine Luria said about her daughter.
The list included Jewish House candidates Lauren Baer, Elissa Slotkin, Max Rose, Elaine Luria and Dean Phillips.
Jewish Democratic challenger Elaine Luria was up by eight points in her bid to flip a key Virginia Beach House district, an internal poll showed.
She was deployed six times and led Seders aboard aircraft carriers. But can she get elected in her Virginia congressional district?
