Charles City resident Kevin Sullivan has been named as the Democratic representative to challenge for the 74th House of Delegates seat in a Jan. 13 special election.

Sullivan received the nod over Henrico County school board member Lamont Bagby and Charles City Board of Supervisor member Floyd Miles Sr. during a primary election on Dec. 22.

Sullivan challenges for the vacated spot by Joe Morrisey, who resigned as a result of pressure from other members of the House of Delegates following a misdemeanor conviction. However, Morrisey and Republican candidate Matt Walton will vie for the vacated position as well.
