A House of Delegates seat in the Northern Neck that has been vacant this General Assembly session will be filled tomorrow in a special election.
Democrat Albert C. Pollard Jr. of Lancaster County, who once held the 99th District seat, and Republican Lee Anne Washington of White Stone are vying for the seat. They are seeking to succeed Robert J. Wittman, a Republican from Montross who won a special election to succeed the late Jo Ann Davis in Congress.
The district consists of King George, Lancaster, Northumberland, Westmoreland and Richmond counties and the Bowling Green and Port Royal precincts in Caroline County.
Washington is a member of the White Stone Town Council and an attorney specializing in family law and commercial contracts. She descends from the family of George Washington.
A businessman, Pollard represented the district for six years before retiring in 2006. He lost a close race for the state Senate last November.
