Felisha Rose Leffler Storm is an American politician who served in the Vermont House of Representatives from 2019 to 2023. She is the Republican nominee for the Virginia House of Delegates for the 84th district in the 2025 election.

Early life, education, and career Storm (née Leffler) was born and raised in Enosburgh, Vermont, and earned a Bachelor of Arts in government from Sweet Briar College. She was inspired to get into politics after meeting then-governor Jim Douglas while volunteering as a child at homecoming and deployment ceremonies of military personnel.

She has worked as a realtor in the Hampton Roads area and is a former volunteer firefighter and EMT. She also worked as the Virginia Director of Grassroots Operations for Americans for Prosperity.

Vermont House of Representatives Elections In 2018, Storm ran for the Vermont House of Representatives as a Republican, defeating incumbent Progressive/Democratic representative Cindy Weed with 52.8% of the vote. At 23 years old, she was the youngest person elected to the Vermont General Assembly. Although Vermont Republican Party chair Paul Dame floated her name as a candidate for the 2022 United States House of Representatives election in Vermont, she opted not to run.

Tenure In 2020, Storm reported a potential gunshot— revealed to be a car driving nearby— outside her home and an anonymous letter alleging she engaged in "un-American" activities to the police.

2025 Virginia House of Delegates campaign In 2025, Storm announced her campaign for the Virginia House of Delegates for the 84th district, challenging incumbent Democratic delegate Nadarius Clark. She pledged to protect 2nd Amendment rights and right-to-work laws as well as oppose illegal immigration, solar panels on farmland, and speed cameras; further claiming the latter "violate our Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights."

Personal life While in college, Storm suffered a traumatic brain injury that forced her to return home. Previously a resident of Enosburg Falls, Vermont, Storm now lives in Suffolk, Virginia, with her husband, Joshua, an Army veteran.
