LEESBURG, Va. — The woman who lost her job after displaying her middle finger at resident Donald Trump's motorcade has won a seat on a county board of supervisors in Virginia.
With
99 percent of the vote reported by the Loudoun County Office of
Elections Tuesday night, unofficial returns showed Democrat Juli
Briskman ahead of Republican incumbent Suzanne Volpe with 52 percent of
the vote.
Among her goals, Briskman said she would increase transparency in local government.
Briskman was on a bike ride in October 2017 and was photographed making the gesture as Trump's motorcade went by.
She
told her bosses 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.
