VA-05 was within 6.5% last time out - so, this district is definitely trending blue.

I tried to google, and it looked like Rs chose someone else at the convention but the incumbent is on the ballot anyway?
Turmoil in the R race would be good for Dr. Webb in what might be a competitive race this year

I'm even hearing there's a chance that Goode's name would have to be written in because he failed to file with the Commonwealth of Virginia on time.

R+6 district that Trump won by 11%. Consensus is a "LIKELY R" race.
