Where Do I Go to Vote in Alexandria Virginia?

As you know, Virginia is one of the battleground states this year in the Presidential Election.  With the election one week away and the expectations of record turnout around the state and indeed the country, many Alexandria Virginia residents are asking the question:

"Where Do I go to Vote?"

Vote 2008Whatever your political persuasion, it is important that you exercise your civic duty and go to a polling place next Tuesday, November 4th.  According to FYI Alexandria, the official resident newsletter for the city, Alexandria officials expect more voters than the record of 61,000 in 2004 -- perhaps as many as 10,000 more!

Whether this is your first time voting (congratulations!) or you've voted before, some polling places have changes since 2004.

There are 3 ways to confirm your voting location:

  1. Check your voter card -- this lists your polling place and address. 

  2. Call the Alexandria Office of Voter Registration and Elections at 703-838-4050

     3.  Visit www.alexandriavoter.org and 
          click on "Am I Registered and Where Do
          I Vote?"

The busiest times of day for voting in Alexandria are expected to be in the early morning and in the evening.

VOTE EARLY AND VOTE OFTEN!  JUST VOTE!
