Where to Vote

The Virginia State Board of Elections website has a handy tool to help you find your polling place. Here’s how to use it:

1. Choose your “locality” – residents who live in the Alexandria (County), Annandale, Burke, Springfield, Lorton and Mount Vernon areas will choose “Fairfax County” from the drop-down menu provided.
2. Enter your last name, first name, date of birth and the last four digits of your Social Security Number in the fields provided. All of this information is required.
3. Click “find.”

The search results will return your voting precinct along with other information. To get the exact address of your specific polling location, click on the + (plus) sign next to “Polling Place.”

From this page, you can also see a preview of your ballot.

There’s a chance, due to redistricting, that your polling location in the November elections will be different than your polling location in past elections.

Patch will be live-blogging election returns.
