Fairfax County Opens Thirteen New Early Voting Locations
Today, Fairfax County opened thirteen new early voting locations, giving voters more opportunities to cast their early votes ahead of the election. Virginia has seen 86% more early ballots cast already this year than during the entire early voting season in 2016. In the first two days of early voting, Fairfax County alone saw an increase in ballots of roughly 208% compared to the first two days of early voting in 2016. The new voting locations will alleviate wait times and give Fairfax residents plenty of options of where to cast their ballots. In addition, the Fairfax County Government Center currently provides a 24-hour drop-box.
Since early voting began on September 18, Virginians who are registered have had the option to vote early in-person at their local registrar’s office or via mail, and can continue to do so until October 31. This election, Virginians have the opportunity to elect a new administration in Joe Biden and Kamala Harris who will lead us out of the public health and economic crises we face, and strong Democratic congressional candidates down the ballot.
