At various times during his term of office, it included parts of Norfolk, Virginia Beach, the Eastern Shore of Virginia, and Mathews County.

Military serviceNick served in the United States Army in the 9th Infantry Division and was twice selected as the Soldier of the Quarter.[1] Political careerIn 1995, Rerras challenged longtime Senator Stanley C. Walker, the President pro tempore of the Senate, in the 6th District, based in Norfolk and Virginia Beach. Walker won reelection 55%-45%.[2] However, Republicans gained a 20-20 tie in the Senate statewide, and Walker's position was weakened by a power-sharing agreement. Rerras ran again in 1999, this time upsetting Walker 59%-41%.[3] In 2001, Rerras' district was expanded to include the Eastern Shore counties of Accomack and Northampton and Mathews County on the Middle Peninsula. In 2003, Rerras was challenged by Norfolk trial lawyer Andrew A. Protogyrou. Rerras won reelection handily, 62%-38%.[4] In 2007, Ralph Northam, an Eastern Shore native who worked as a pediatric neurologist in Norfolk, unseated Rerras, 54%-46%.[5] References1. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.nickrerras.com/about.html | title=Rerras for Senate | accessdate=September 19, 2012}} 2. ^{{cite web | title = 1995 Election Results - Senate of Virginia | publisher = Virginia State Board of Elections | url = http://www.sbe.virginia.gov/ElectionResults/1995/results95_va_sen.htm | accessdate = 2012-10-02 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120328024807/http://www.sbe.virginia.gov/ElectionResults/1995/results95_va_sen.htm | archive-date = 2012-03-28 | dead-url = yes | df = }} 3. ^{{cite web | title = Election Results - Senate of VA - Nov99 Gen Election | publisher = Virginia State Board of Elections | url = http://www.sbe.virginia.gov/ElectionResults/1999/Results-SEN-Nov99-Gen--by_dist-loc.htm | accessdate = 2012-10-02 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120328024748/http://www.sbe.virginia.gov/ElectionResults/1999/Results-SEN-Nov99-Gen--by_dist-loc.htm | archive-date = 2012-03-28 | dead-url = yes | df = }} 4. ^{{cite web | title = General Election - November 4, 2003 | publisher = Virginia State Board of Elections | url = http://www.sbe.state.va.us/ElectionResults/2003/Nov/S_07_006.htm | archive-url = https://archive.today/20121224132343/http://www.sbe.state.va.us/ElectionResults/2003/Nov/S_07_006.htm | dead-url = yes | archive-date = 2012-12-24 | accessdate = 2012-10-02 | df = }} 5. ^{{cite web | title = November 6, 2007 General Election Official Results | publisher = Virginia State Board of Elections | url = https://www.voterinfo.sbe.virginia.gov/election/DATA/2007/196E44FA-8B19-4240-9A44-737216DAA55D/Unofficial/7_s.shtml | accessdate = 2012-10-02 | deadurl = yes | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20111002101836/https://www.voterinfo.sbe.virginia.gov/election/DATA/2007/196E44FA-8B19-4240-9A44-737216DAA55D/Unofficial/7_s.shtml | archivedate = October 2, 2011 | df = }} External links
