Ashburn, VA – Today, Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton (VA-10) announced her support for Delegate Kannan Srinivasan to represent Senate District 32. 

"Throughout my career, I have been a voice for Loudoun families, ensuring everyone is heard when it matters most,” said Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton. “Kannan truly understands the heart of our community—its shared values, the challenges we face, and the priorities that make Loudoun such a special place. As Delegate, he has demonstrated his commitment by protecting women’s reproductive freedom, expanding access to healthcare, working to reduce tolls, and championing common sense gun reform. In these uncertain times, we need a leader like Kannan who will stand strong against extremism and defend our values. I encourage voters to elect Delegate Kannan Srinivasan to the State Senate so we can secure a Democratic Majority and build a brighter future for Virginia." 

“I’m humbled to have the endorsement of Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton, a proven champion for hardworking families,” said Delegate Kannan Srinivasan. “She knows that I’m dedicated to improving our community, protecting our rights, and fighting for our children. I know we can continue to deliver real results and build a better Loudoun.”   

Congresswoman Wexton is Delegate Srinivasan’s third congressional endorsement, joining both Suhas Subramanyam and Abigail Spanberger in their support.  

Senate Democrats currently have a one-seat majority, making this election critical in maintaining a Democratic controlled chamber. 

Richmond, VA – Today, Senate District 32 Democratic Nominee Kannan Srinivasan submitted a letter to the Speaker of the House indicating he will resign as District 26 Delegate effective January 7, 2025. By submitting a timely resignation, a special election can be called to ensure the constituents of House District 26 will have continued representation in the upcoming 2025 General Assembly Session. Delegate Srinivasan issued the following statement:

“I thank the voters of Loudoun County for putting their faith in me as their Democratic nominee for State Senate District 32. I look forward to building on the trust we’ve earned and enthusiastically representing the residents across the 26th District for the rest of my time in this office. With the general election now in front of us, I am taking nothing for granted and will continue to put in the hard work to ensure we maintain our Senate Democratic majority. The voters of the 32nd Senate District have the opportunity to make their voices heard on January 7, and I will work tirelessly to earn their vote and support.

As I now begin to campaign for the Senate District 32 General Election, my responsibility to ensure the residents of House District 26 continue to have effective representation remains. It is of vital importance that they maintain representation during the upcoming General Assembly Session, considering the number of important legislative issues and constitutional amendments under consideration.

To ensure the voters of House District 26 have an opportunity to select their next Delegate before the start of the 2025 General Assembly Legislative Session, I tendered my resignation, effective January 7, 2025, to Speaker Don Scott. I look forward to supporting the eventual House District 26 Democratic nominee and ensuring we work together to keep Virginia moving forward.”

Ashburn, VA – On Saturday evening, the Loudoun County Democratic Committee declared Delegate Kannan Srinivasan the winner in the 32nd District Virginia State Senate Call to Caucus.

“Thank you to the nearly 6,000 voters of Loudoun County who voted today and those who have placed their trust in me,” said Delegate Kannan Srinivasan. “I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to my wife and rock, Jayashree, for her incredible strength, patience, and unwavering belief in me. This victory would not have been possible without her or the extraordinary efforts of my remarkable staff and volunteers, who poured every ounce of their heart and soul into our campaign.”

“I also want to thank my friend, Congressman-Elect Suhas Subramanyam for his constant leadership and support—I am committed to serving our constituents with equal devotion. I would also like to thank the leaders in the House and Senate for their guidance through this past Session and this campaign.”

“I thank the candidates who ran alongside me in this caucus for showing that there are many different ways to be a leader in our community. We are stronger because of the competition and it is a testament to this district that nearly 6,000 people came to vote on a Saturday on such short notice and so quickly after the last election.”

“Over the past nine days, it has been my privilege and joy to spend every moment connecting with the incredible people of District 32. Each conversation has reminded me of just how great our community is—filled with diverse voices, shared values, and a deep commitment to progress. My passion for service and resolve to give back to this district has only grown stronger. I look forward to delivering on the promises of this campaign in the weeks ahead- to secure a Democratic Majority in the State Senate, listen to the concerns of our community, and continue to be a highly effective legislator who delivers results and keeps Virginia moving forward.”

Delegate Kannan Srinivasan will face Republican Tumay Harding, also nominated on November 16, in a special election set for January 7, 2025. The outcome of this election could determine control of the Virginia State Senate going into the 2025 Legislative Session.

Ashburn, VA – Today, Speaker Don Scott, Senate Majority Leader Scott Surovell, and Delegate Kannan Srinivasan held a press call discussing the critical need for Democrats to hold Senate District 32 and maintain their one-seat Democratic majority. On the call, the Democratic Leaders shared their support of Delegate Srinivasan and why he is the best candidate to win and ensure Virginia Democrats continue protecting reproductive rights, advancing gun violence prevention measures, creating good paying jobs, and defending our democracy.

“We need a democratic majority in the Senate, and that's why we need to elect Kannan. If we lose here, we risk losing the Senate majority and all of the progress that we’ve worked so hard to make and to preserve and protect,” said Speaker of the House Don Scott. “He's the only candidate in this race with a track record, not only in his community doing everyday public service, but in the General Assembly so far. And with this seat, we can make sure that we keep the Senate majority in place and continue to fight for Virginia families.”

"I want to see Kannan elected because he is calm, steady, and experienced,” said Senate Majority Leader Scott Surovell. “He is exactly what our caucus needs to help us fight back and maintain our majority and work with the House so we can keep moving forward.”

"I’ve done this work quietly, with determination, by building relationships within my caucus and across the aisle. My focus has always been on results, not on making headlines,” said Delegate Kannan Srinivasan. “I’ve won my last two elections with more than 60% of the vote because I have earned the trust of the voters of Loudoun, who recognize that I represent their values in Richmond and will get things done. With a proven track record of winning elections, I feel confident that I can safely keep this district blue.”
