The fact that Dorothy McAuliffe—the wife of Terry McAuliffe—is running for Congress in my district is infuriating. The arrogance and entitlement is insulting to the people in the district who deserve a real representative in congress. https://virginiamercury.com/2026/03/11/dorothy-mcauliffe-launches-bid-for-congress-in-anticipated-7th-district/

Dorothy McAuliffe, a former Virginia first lady and State Department official, announced Wednesday that she is running for Congress in Virginia’s anticipated 7th congressional District, joining a growing field of Democratic candidates in a race that could take shape if voters approve a new congressional map next month.McAuliffe, 62, launched her campaign with a message centered on lowering costs for families and expanding access to health care, while also pledging to advocate for children and military families. Her candidacy adds another prominent name to what is expected to be a competitive Democratic primary.
