How do primaries work in Virginia?

A primary election is an election in which registered voters select a candidate that they believe should be a political party's candidate for elected office to run in the general election. They are also used to choose convention delegates and party leaders. Primaries are state-level and local-level elections that take place prior to a general election. Virginia utilizes an open primary process in which registered voters do not have to be members of a party to vote in that party's primary.[2][3][4][5]

How do I register to vote?

To vote in Virginia, one must be a United States citizen, a resident of Virginia, and at least 18 years of age.[6]

Registration can be completed online, in person at a local voter registration office, or by mail. Voters can also register at the following locations:[6]

  • State or local government offices when applying or re-certifying for Aid to Dependent Children, Food Stamps, WIC, Medicaid, or Rehabilitation Services
  • Government offices in the state that provide state-funded programs primarily engaged in providing services to persons with disabilities
  • Armed forces recruitment offices
  • Public libraries
  • Virginia Department of Elections office
  • Department of Motor Vehicles offices
  • Voter registration drives[7]

Is there an early voting period?

See also: Early voting

On April 12, 2020, Governor Ralph Northam (D) signed HB1/SB111 into law, established no-excuse early voting 45 days prior to an election. The legislation was set to take effect in the November 3, 2020 election.[8]

As of August 2020, 38 states and the District of Columbia permitted early voting. Early voting permits citizens to cast ballots in person at a polling place prior to an election. In states that permit early voting, a voter does not have to provide an excuse for being unable to vote on election day. States that do not permit early voting still permit some or all citizens to vote early by mail—often known as absentee voting. Some states allow no-excuse absentee voting, while others require an excuse. States that allow in-person absentee voting without an excuse are counted among early voting states.
