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. 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. A special election was called by the Governor of the United States Virgin Islands, Kenneth Mapp to be held on April 8, 2017.

Delegate to the United States House of Representatives

Running without an opponent on the ballot, she won re-election with 97.51% of vote.
