A new court filing claims a Democratic candidate for a hotly contested, GOP-held Virginia House of Delegates seat doesn’t live in the district she seeks to represent — a dispute that could shape control of the chamber in 2026.

Three voters in Stafford County went to court to allege candidate Stacey Carroll does not live in the 64th district and instead in the neighboring, Democratic-majority, 23rd – and want her booted from the ballot.

Plaintiffs Stephen Schwartz, Judith Anne Parker and Juliet Schweiter alleged Carroll continues to live near US-1 in Aquia, Virginia – at the southern edge of the 23rd district, but filed to run for office from an address about seven miles southwestward near Stafford Court House, Virginia, in the 64th.
