Margaret G. "Margi" Vanderhye (born July 29, 1948 in Chicago) is a McLean, Virginia community activist and a former delegate from the 34th district of Virginia.
Another McLean resident, Richard "Rip" Sullivan, a lawyer with the firm Reed Smith, also sought the Democratic Party nomination for the seat which had been held by Republican Vince Callahan since 1968.
From 1989 to 1991, she was president of the Virginia Association of Planning District Commissions.
Early in her career she worked for Brent Scowcroft at the National Security Council and did a stint as a research consultant at the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C. Starting in the 1990s, she began to work as a political appointee in the area of development and transportation.
She is a 1990 graduate of Leadership Fairfax.
She is a graduate of the Sorensen Institute for Political Leadership at the University of Virginia.
She is married to Robert A. Vanderhye, an attorney and energy specialist.
Virginia Governor Doug Wilder appointed Vanderhye to the state's Commission on Population Growth and Development and to a four-year term (1992–1996) on the Chesapeake Bay Local Assistance Board.
During the Wilder administration, she was also the Chair of the Citizens Advisory Committee for the state's Transportation Coordinating Council.
In 1995, President Bill Clinton appointed her to the National Capital Planning Commission where she chaired the Commission's Joint Memorials Task Force which developed a master plan for monuments, memorials, and museums in the national capital area.
She also served on the NCPC's Interagency Security Task Force and was the Commission's designated representative to the Transportation Planning Board.
In 1995, she conceived a cooperative community initiative called "Project Hospitality" to discourage hotels from providing high school students with rooms for after-prom parties.
In 1998, the program received an award from the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors and has been replicated throughout the region.
In 2002, Virginia Governor Mark Warner appointed Vanderhye to the Northern Virginia Transportation Authority.
She was reappointed to the Authority by Gov. Tim Kaine.
During her two terms on the NVTA, she helped develop the Authority's "2030 TransAction Plan," a blueprint for regional transportation priorities for the next two decades.

The Republican Party nominee for the seat was Dave Hunt, a McLean resident and businessman who previously served as legislative assistant to the retiring incumbent.
