2022 District of Columbia primary elections results
WHAT TO WATCH
Mayor
D.C. voters will decide whether to make incumbent Muriel E. Bowser the only mayor other than Marion Barry to be elected three times — or reject her in favor of one of her left-leaning opponents, council members Robert C. White Jr. and Trayon White Sr., and former advisory neighborhood commissioner James Butler.

Attorney General
Three like-minded candidates are vying for the Democratic nomination for D.C. attorney general: solo practitioner lawyer Ryan Jones; Brian Schwalb, partner-in-charge at Venable’s D.C. office, and Bruce V. Spiva, a former managing partner at the Perkins Coie law firm. The winner on Tuesday will be on a path to likely succeed the city’s first elected attorney general, Karl A. Racine (D), in November.

City Council
The D.C. Council chair acts much like Congress’s Senate majority leader, steering which bills make it onto the legislative agenda for a vote. Incumbent Phil Mendelson, who has held the position for 10 years, is facing a challenge from attorney Erin Palmer for the Democratic nomination.
