Elections in the District of Columbia |
---|
On November 7, 2006, the District of Columbia held a U.S. House of Representatives election for its shadow representative. Unlike its non-voting delegate, the shadow representative is only recognized by the district and is not officially sworn or seated. Incumbent Shadow Representative Ray Browne did not run for reelection and fellow Democrat Mike Panetta was elected in his place.
Primary elections were held on September 12, 2006. Forster withdrew from the race at the beginning of September but his name remained on the ballot and he still received thousands of votes. [2]
