Get ready to vote in the June 8th Virginia Democratic primary!

Voting by mail

If you want to vote by mail, request a mail-in ballot in print or online.

*The deadline to request a mail-in ballot is this Friday, May 28, at 5 p.m. Your request must reach the registrar by this time.

Voting early

If you want to vote early in person, then visit the Albemarle County Office Building. You can cast your ballot there any weekday and the next two Saturdays (May 29 and June 5) from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Wondering where your requested ballot is?

We’re hearing that they’re sometimes taking a little longer than expected to arrive. If you asked for a ballot, check the Virginia Citizen Portal to confirm that the registrar got your request. You can also track the ballot using Ballot Scout.

Avoid traffic by voting early!

Though turnout on June 8th is expected to be light thanks to mail-in and early voting, consider voting early to avoid traffic at polling places on voting day. Schools will be in session and there could be heavy traffic at polling places. Here’s a chart of the peak traffic times at polling places.

Have more questions?

We’ve got all the answers, and we have easy-to-follow video guides in English and Spanish that you can find at our Virginia Voter Guide.

Get Caught in the Act, Help Clean Up Litter in Virginia

During the month of March, Keep Virginia Beautiful is hosting a month of beautiful acts across Virginia. As part of this state-wide effort, the Albemarle County Solid Waste Alternatives Committee (SWAAC) would like to invite all to join. Grab a bag, take a walk, and pick up some litter. When you’re finished, take a minute to let us know where (include the nearest street address or zip code) and how much litter you picked up. This will help us to better understand and address litter in our area!
