Electoral history

In the 1982, a general election was held for all Virginia House of Delegates seats following

Fairfax County School Board.[4] Kory won the primary by a narrow margin and was elected to the seat in 2009,[4][5] winning the general with just under 60% of the vote.[5] Since then, Kory has been re-elected four times (2011, 2013, 2015 and 2017), generally earning about 75% of the vote.[5]

In 2019, Kory faces her first primary challenge, from Andres Jimenez.[5]
