Register to vote today to make your
voice heard in November
On November 5, Virginians will have the opportunity to vote in the general and special elections for President, a U.S. Senate seat, 11 U.S. House of Representatives seats and – in some areas – “down-ballot” offices. Faithful citizenship reminds us to take an active part in public life through our voice and our vote.
If you will be 18 or older on November 5, we encourage you to register to vote, or update your data. Please see below for important deadlines for registration/updates and to request an absentee ballot.
