The 2017 United States Virgin Islands legislative election was held on Saturday, April 8, 2017, in the St. Thomas-St. John district, to fill an undetermined seat in the 32nd Virgin Islands Legislature.[1]
In February 2017, Governor Kenneth Mapp called for a special election following a decision by the Supreme Court of the Virgin Islands to ban Senator-elect Kevin Rodríquez from serving in the Legislature of the Virgin Islands.[2]
