Kimberly Pope Adams seeks re-election in 82nd District

Fresh off the 2026 local and midterm elections, Democratic Del. Kimberly Pope Adams announced her intent to seek re-election to the Virginia House of Delegates in November 2027. In a statement released Nov. 4, Pope Adams said she was seeking a second two-year term because "there's still much more to do" for the 82nd House District beyond 2027. “Our district is home to hardworking families, farmers, small business owners, and communities with tremendous potential,” Pope Adams said in a statement annoucing her intent. “Whether it’s keeping a family farm operating, funding our classrooms, repairing a bridge, or bringing broadband to a rural home, these are real challenges that require more than promises. They require persistence and results.” The 43-year-old Hopewell native and Dinwiddie County resident is so far the only Democrat to announce for the seat, and she is not expected to face opposition for the nomination. Republicans have yet to announce who they will back next year. Pope Adams has faced former Del. Kim Taylor of Dinwiddie County in the past two election cycles. In 2023, Taylor defeated Pope Adams in a tight race that was decided by a recount. Pope Adams came back in 2053 to defeat Taylor

Tricia Johnson taught kindergarten at Matoaca Elementary School for more than 20 years before retiring in 2004. Recently, she took up a new assignment: sending care packages filled with old photos, classwork and a poem to all of her former students. The remarkably kind act has reconnected her with more than one hundred of her students and has inspired her to reunite with all of them before she dies. She sits down with TODAY's Jenna Bush Hager and Sheinelle Jones to explain why this project is so important to her and the children she once taught, share the outpouring of love she's received in return, and then she gets the surprise of a lifetime in Studio 1A.
