EXCLUSIVE — Republican Derrick Anderson launched his first television advertisement in his bid to flip Virginia‘s 7th Congressional District, emphasizing a contrast to policies of House Democrats and President Joe Biden.

Anderson, a Green Beret veteran, is the first of the six Republicans in the primary for the district to launch a TV ad buy. He is vying to flip the seat currently held by Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA), who is not seeking reelection to her seat and instead running for governor in 2025.
