Legislature of the Virgin Islands

All fifteen seats in the Legislature of the Virgin Islands were contested. Controversy erupted after allegations surfaced that a candidate for the St. Thomas-St. John District, Kevin Rodriquez lied about his residency.[1] Rodriquez was barred from taking a seat in the Legislature of the Virgin Islands after a ruling from the Supreme Court of the Virgin Islands.[2] A special election was called by the Governor of the United States Virgin Islands, Kenneth Mapp to be held on April 8, 2017.[3]
