WAVY.com Voter Guide

This is Virginia’s first election allowing people to vote early in-person, or by mail, without a reason. The Board of Elections predicts half of all eligible voters will have voted by Election Day.

The last day for early, in-person voting was Saturday, Oct. 31 in both Virginia and North Carolina.

If you plan to vote my mail, ballots must be postmarked by Election Day.

Election Day Poll Hours

Virginia – Polls open at 6 a.m. and close at 7 p.m.

North Carolina – Polls open at 6:30 a.m. and close at 7:30 p.m.

As long as you are in line by the closing time, you will be able to vote.
