District 89 was represented by Daun Hester from 2013, after she won a 2012 special election.[3][4] In 2017 Hester stepped down to run for Norfolk City Treasurer,[5] and Jerrauld "Jay" Jones (son of Jerrauld C. Jones, who held the seat for eight terms) ran for the seat.[6] Joe Dillard, president of the Norfolk NAACP, also ran, as did Libertarian Terry Hurst.[7]

Based on election results from the November, 2017 Virginia election, District 89's representative is Jay Jones, starting in January 2018.[8][9][10]
