Virginia's 38th House of Delegates district

[1] In the 1982, a general election was held for all Virginia House of Delegates seats following redistricting (typically Virginia's state-level legislative elections are held on odd-number years).

[2] That year, Democrat Nora Anderson Squyres narrowly defeated Republican Gwendalyn F. Cody in the contest to represent the 38th district, winning by just 180 votes; however, another general election was held the following year and Cody defeated Squyres.

Cody then served a two-year term before being defeated by Democrat Leslie Byrne in 1985.

[3] In December 1992, Democrat Robert D. Hull won the special election to fill the vacated seat.

[4] Kory won the primary by a narrow margin and was elected to the seat in 2009,[4][5] winning the general with just under 60% of the vote.
