A Virginian cyclist who was fired from her job after she gave President Donald Trump's motorcade the middle finger, has just won a seat on her county's Board of Supervisors. 

Juli Briskman defeated incumbent Republican Suzanne Volpe, 5,586 to 4,721, for the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors, Algonkian District.

With 99 percent of the vote reported by the Loudoun County Office of Elections Tuesday night, unofficial returns showed Briskman ahead of Volpe with 52 percent of the vote.

Among her goals, Briskman said she would increase transparency in local government.

'We live in a great community and we deserve a Board of Supervisors that does more to support our schools, first responders, working women, and families,' Briskman said on her campaign website. 'That's why I'm running.'

She told her bosses at Akima LLC what happened after the photo went viral and was asked to leave her government contracting job or face termination. 

She sued and won a severance claim, but her wrongful-termination lawsuit was dismissed.

Virginia Democrats sweeped in the legislative and local elections, taking full control of the statehouse for the first time in more than two decades.

Democrats won majorities in both the state House and Senate in Tuesday's legislative election. This is the third election in a row that Virginia Democrats have made significant gains since President Donald Trump was elected.
