Pinto, who worked as a policy adviser to Attorney General Karl A. Racine (D) for several years, was the last candidate to enter the race in February. A special election to complete Evans’s term through January is scheduled for June 16. Pinto, most of her Democratic primary contenders and Republican Katherine Venice are on the ballot in that race. It is too late for defeated primary candidates to drop out of the special election, but most have indicated they do not plan to campaign for the special election. Before her campaign, Pinto had never voted in a D.C. election.
