Early life, education, business career

Political career

On August 9, 2011, the 94th district incumbent and Republican nominee, Glenn Oder, announced his resignation from the House of Delegates to become the executive director of the Fort Monroe Authority, overseeing the dispoal of the Fort Monroe military reservation after the United States Army's closing of the base.[3] Two days later, Yancey was chosen to replace him on the November ballot.[4] Yancey then defeated Democratic lawyer Gary R. West, also a last-minute nominee, 9251-6165.[5]
