Here's who won local elected positions for each Hampton Roads city

There were lots of hyper-local races in Hampton Roads that didn't get much media coverage, but they can still make a world of difference.

NORFOLK, Va. — Virginia's 2021 election had a lot going on for the top of state government. 

Voters chose Republican businessman Glenn Youngkin, a political newcomer, to be their next governor (over Democratic former governor Terry McAuliffe).

Around lunchtime on Wednesday, the lieutenant governor and attorney general's races were still too close to call.
