Super Tuesday: How to Vote

Tuesday is an election day -- Virginians’ turn to get their say in who should be the Republican or Democratic nominee for President.

Grab a photo ID -- a license, passport, or employee badge will all work -- and head to your polling place sometime between 6 a.m. and 7 p.m.

“As long as you’re in line at 7 p.m. you are going to be able to vote, so please do!”  

Liz Howard is the Deputy Commissioner at the Department of Elections. She says the first question voters will get is whether they’d like a Republican ballot, or Democratic one.

So that means when you walk into your polling location you can just tell the election official whether or not you would like to participate in the Democratic or Republican primary.

You can only vote in one -- but you do not need to be formally registered with a party to vote, nor do you have to sign any statement of affiliation or oath.

If you have any more questions, or need to find your polling place, all you have to do is visit elections.dot-virginia.gov and click on the citizen portal.
