Elections
2014
Scholte ran in the 2014 election for the U.S. House to represent Virginia's 11th District. Delegates at Virginia’s 11th Congressional District Republican Convention selected Scholte as the Republican nominee for the 11th District. Terry Wear, 11th District Republican chairman, said, "Suzanne Scholte is a highly impressive candidate. She has spent years helping victims of oppression; she has proven herself to be an effective leader in both the public and the private sector; she has a deep understanding of a broad array of issues; and she is well-respected around the world. In a tough environment for Democrats, I’m sure Gerry Connolly cannot be happy about Suzanne’s nomination."[2][1] Suzanne Scholte lost the general election on November 4, 2014.
